Franklin Half Dollars are 50-cent coins issued by the United States Mint from 1948 to 1963. They feature a design by Benjamin Franklin on the obverse and the Liberty Bell on the reverse. The 1960 Philadelphia minted Franklin Half Dollar is notable for its production in a non-silver composition, as the earlier versions contained 90% silver. These coins are sought after by collectors, particularly in higher grades due to their historical significance and silver content.
