1918-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-66 (NGC).

Exceedingly Rare 1918-D Half Dollar in NGC MS-66 1918-D Walking Liberty Half Dollar. MS-66 (NGC). This is one of the two finest examples of the issue that we can ever recall handling - the other is the Mack C. Chase Collection PCGS/CMQ MS-66 that brought $115,600 in our Summer 2026 Global Showcase Auction. This equally rare and desirable NGC MS-66 example is an extraordinary upper end Gem whose surfaces are virtually pristine with a smooth, inviting appearance. Essentially brilliant, although more studied inspection reveals blooms of champagne-pink iridescence that provide further visual appeal. Impressively sharp in strike, and close to full in this regard, this is an outstanding coin for the issue that is worthy of the strongest bids. Produced during the final year of World War I when the United States' economy was still strong due to the nation's participation in that conflict, the 1918-D had a generous mintage of 3.8 million pieces. The demands of commerce were great, however, and the vast majority of examples entered circulation at the time of issue and remained there until heavily worn or lost. The result is that the 1918-D is now numbered among the rarer Walking Liberty half dollars even in lower Mint State grades. The typical Uncirculated survivor is limited in grade by subdued luster, excessive surface abrasions and/or soft strike detail in and around the centers. Writing in the 2008 book Collecting & Investing Strategies for Walking Liberty Half Dollars, specialist [and your cataloger] Jeff Ambio ranks the 1918-D as the third rarest issue in this series at and above the MS-65 grade level. Provenance: From the Mack C. Chase Collection. NGC Census: 2; 0 finer. The corresponding PCGS Population is 3/1 (MS-66 + finest). PCGS# 6575. NGC ID: 24PW.
