Collectible coins, particularly U.S. half dollars, have gained popularity among numismatists and investors. The 1959 half dollar is notable as it falls within the series of coins minted during the "Franklin" era, characterized by the image of Benjamin Franklin on the obverse and the Liberty Bell on the reverse. A roll of 50 half dollars from this year typically contains uncirculated or circulated coins, which can vary in value based on their condition, rarity, and demand among collectors. The 1959 half dollar, while not one of the rarest dates, holds significance for those interested in mid-20th-century American coinage.
