It depends on the mint mark and condition. That design, more properly known as the Walking Liberty half, was issued from 1916 to 1947 and is considered to be one of the most beautiful coins of the 20th century, along with the St. Gaudens $20 gold piece.
Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter at roughly the 8:00 position. It may be blank or there may be a D or S. (The W on the front of the coin is the designer's monogram and not a mint mark.)
