The Franklin Half Dollar series was the last Silver Half Dollar series of its kind - minted fully in 90% silver! The Kennedy Half Dollar that replaced it was only minted in silver for one year, then the silver percentage was lowered until the coin was merely clad. This 1963 Franklin Half Dollar is the LAST year of issue so it is made of 90% silver! The high silver content in these coins makes them especially sought out by silver collectors, as well as numismatic collectors due to their history as currency. This 1963 Franklin Half Dollar has a superb MS65 grade from PCGS, which is fantastic considering this coin's age. These out of circulation coins are so nostalgic and are a classic addition to any collection!
Highlights:
- Last Year of Issue
