These 90% Silver Franklin Half Dollars pay tribute to Benjamin Franklin, one of America's most influential inventors, printers, and Founding Fathers. Each lot contains $1 face value in Franklin halves (2 coins total) in Average Circulated condition.
The obverse showcases John Sinnock's portrait of Franklin with the inscriptions "Liberty" and "In God We Trust". The reverse features the Liberty Bell with a small eagle to the right, satisfying the requirement that half dollars depict an eagle in the design.
Struck by the United States Mint from 1948 to 1963, this short-lived Silver series has become a favorite among collectors and investors. Each $1 face value contains approximately 0.715 troy ounces of actual Silver weight, offering a strong combination of bullion value and historical appeal.
Like other pre-1965 90% Silver coins, Franklin halves are part of what is often called junk Silver or constitutional Silver. These coins were pulled from circulation when Silver was removed from everyday U.S. coinage and have been saved ever since as a practical, trusted store of real money.
