About Franklin Half Dollars

Produced from 1948 to 1963, the Franklin Half Dollar is a neat piece of American currency that has a unique denomination, as it is a coin worth fifty cents, a foreign concept in today's currency. On eBay, you can find this coin in mint or circulated condition from reliable sellers. Benjamin Franklin was the king of inventions and has been credited with conceiving bifocals, electricity, swimming fins (at age 11), and many more, not to mention being one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Therefore, it makes sense that his recognizable face was etched into the heads side, with the tails side featuring the liberty bell, both of sides designed by John R. Sinnock, who also sculpted the Purple Heart medal. A set, roll, or lot allows you to obtain multiple copies of this mint in one purchase. A proof, which can be the rarest version of the Franklin Half Dollar, is also available with a continuously increasing value, especially in condition untouched by human hands. Honor one of the greatest men to walk this earth by adding this collectible to your coin collection.
