Franklin Half Dollars are a series of 50-cent coins minted by the United States from 1948 to 1963. The 1958 Franklin Half Dollar, produced at the Philadelphia Mint, features a depiction of Benjamin Franklin on the obverse and the Liberty Bell on the reverse. These coins are made of 90% silver and 10% copper, making them popular among collectors due to their historical significance and silver content. The 1958 issue is particularly sought after in higher grades, as it represents the later years of the Franklin series before the transition to the Kennedy Half Dollar.
