The Original, Not the Revival

Before it was reborn on the Silver Eagle, it was just money.

Adolph Weinman's Walking Liberty half dollar was struck for circulation from 1917 to 1947 — through the First World War, the Depression, and the Second World War.

Unlike the modern American Silver Eagle that later revived Weinman's design as a bullion coin, this was never meant to sit in a vault. It was spent, saved, passed hand to hand, and often worn smooth by three decades of ordinary use.

Numismatists have long called it one of the most beautiful coins the U.S. Mint ever struck. This ring begins with one of the originals — a high quality specimen of the coin that actually lived American history.

The Original, Not the Revival

Before it was reborn on the Silver Eagle, it was just money.

Struck for circulation from 1917 to 1947, the Walking Liberty half dollar is the original coin behind Weinman's design — the one that actually circulated, decades before it was revived on the modern Silver Eagle. This ring begins with one of the originals.

U.S. MintEach coin was struck and guaranteed by the United States Mint — weight, purity, and silver content certified by the U.S. government.

Fit & Sizing Confidence

Get the size right before you commit.

Sizing is the one thing that stops people at this point. So we removed it as a risk entirely.

What if I choose the wrong size or I gain/lose weight?

Lifetime resizing is included. Send it back and we'll resize it, free, for as long as you own it.

How do I measure without a jeweler?

If you aren't sure of your size, select Request Ring Sizer instead of specifying your size. We'll mail you a sizer for free and wait for you to email us with it before we forge anything — it's the most accurate way to measure at home. Learn more about your three sizing options.

Can the coin ring be worn daily?

Yes — every piece is built for daily wear, not display. That said, like any fine jewelry, we recommend removing it before activities with heavy impact on your hands - yard work with tools, going to the gym, etc.

How long does a commission take?

Usually 2–3 business days, longer if a specific coin year is requested.

What happens after you commission

A delivery that feels like an event.

The moment you commission your piece, it goes to the bench — not a warehouse. Over the next 2–3 days, a specific coin is pulled from the vault, forged, finished, and inspected, specifically for you.

Then comes the email notification: it's on its way. Next Day shipping via UPS or FedEx, tracked and insured, so you know exactly when to expect the knock at the door.

You'll sign for it — a small formality that makes the moment feel real. And then a ritual you share with thousands before you:

Remove the smooth matte presentation box from the mailer. Slowly lift off the telescopic lid, and your Certificate of Record is the first thing you see, resting on top.

Snugly tucked into the foam insert, slide the linen-and-suede ring box free. Lift the top to find the coin you chose is a ring now, catching light for the first time outside the Foundry.

Setting the ring box aside, you hold the ring close, turn it over in your hand, marvel at the details, find the date, and notice its surprising weight.

Finally, you slip it on. That's the part people remember for years to come.

Didn't expect it to feel this substantial

"I've had cheap silver rings before. This isn't that. You can feel the coin in it — real weight, real detail. The edge lettering is still sharp."

No occasion, just wanted one

"Didn't buy this for a wedding or a milestone — just always liked old Morgan dollars and wanted to actually wear one instead of keeping it in a drawer. Zero regrets."

The design is what sold me
