July 7, 2009 The value of the 1918 Walking Liberty half dollar varies considerably depending upon which mint it was produced at and the condition of it. The mint mark is located on the reverse [tails] side of the coin just to the left of the letter "H" in the word "HALF". The letter "D" represents the US mint at Denver, the letter "S" represents the US Mint at San Francisco and if there is no letter then the coin was minted at the US Mint at Philadelphia. The value of the 1918 Philadelphia coin ranges from about $10 to $170 in circulated grades depending upon the actual condition of the coin. In the uncirculated grades this coin's value ranges from about $600 in MS60 to about $13,000 in MS67. The value of the 1918 Denver coin ranges from about $12 to $260 in circulated grades depending upon the actual condition of the coin. In the uncirculated grades this coin's value ranges from about $1400 in MS60 to $57,500 in MS66. The value of the 1918 San Francisco coin ranges from about $10 to $65 in circulated grades depending upon the actual condition of the coin. In the uncirculated grades this coin's value ranges from about $550 in MS60 to $80,000 in MS67.
If it turns out you have an MS67, the highest grade for this coin, the values for each variety are... BN-brown ($500), RB-red brown ($550) and RD-red ($2250).
