Highlights:
The Walking Liberty design was created in 1916 by Adolph A. Weinman as part of a United States Mint and Treasury Department contest seeking new designs for American currency. The Walking Liberty design Weinman created would go on to feature on the US half-dollar coin from 1916 to 1947 and is now the face of the US Mints American Silver Eagle bullion coins.
Obverse
Weinmans image of Walking Liberty on the obverse of the 1/10 oz GSM Walking Liberty Silver Round is said to have been inspired by various images from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Libertys figure is depicted in left-profile relief as she strides toward the sun on the horizon, one hand outstretched and the other at her side clutching oak and laurel branches. It is believed that Weinman took inspiration from Oscar Rotys Sower female figure on French coins of the era, and that Libertys head and cap in this design were inspired by his own 1909 Union Soldiers and Sailors Monument erected in Baltimore.
Reverse
The 1/10 oz GSM Walking Liberty Silver Round also features the exact design from the reverse of the Walking Liberty Half Dollar as created by Weinman. Here, an American bald eagle is perched on a mountainside cliff using its talons to clutch a small sapling. Inscriptions here include Golden State Mint, .99 Fine Silver, and 1/10 Troy Ounce.
