History and Value: The Franklin Half Dollar, minted by the United States Mint from 1948 to 1963, features the likeness of Benjamin Franklin on one side and the iconic Liberty Bell on the reverse, both intricately crafted by John R. Sinnock. Departing from conventional presidential motifs, it integrates a miniature eagle alongside the Liberty Bell, setting it apart from other coins of its time.
Originally issued to commemorate Franklin's bicentennial, its design underwent a rigorous selection process. Despite initial objections, it has become a cherished collectible, with its worth influenced by factors such as condition, scarcity, and mint mark. While circulated examples may command a slight premium over face value, uncirculated specimens or those with distinctive characteristics can fetch significantly higher prices. Certain years, particularly 1955 and 1953-S, hold particular allure for collectors.
For an accurate assessment of the value of a specific Franklin Half Dollar, it's advisable to seek guidance from reputable coin dealers or reliable reference materials.
