[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2898587, member: 10461"]This is PMD (post-mint damage). The obverse was planed off. And the bird is an [B]eagle[/B]. In answer to your question, there's about [URL='http://www.coinflation.com/coins/1916-1947-Silver-Walking-Liberty-Half-Dollar-Value.html']six bucks worth of silver[/URL] in that coin as of this posting, if you don't count the amount that was lost when the obverse was removed.
