A Franklin Silver Coin is a great investment just for the 90% silver content alone. Franklin half dollars in good condition are valuable for their collecting appeal. A silver coin that can’t be beat for value and price!
Franklin silver coins were minted between 1948 and 1963. In 1964 mass quantities of Franklin half dollars were melted for the silver each coin contained. While many Franklin silver halves remain today, there are some years that are more available than others thereby increasing the overall value of these silver coins.
Quality and circulation can impact this coin more than some others due to the fact that the distinct lines on the obverse side Liberty Bell can be rubbed away fairly easily through use. Expect to pay many times face value of a Franklin silver coin for the silver content alone. Collector quality premiums go up from there!
