1963 Franklin Half Dollar, 90% Silver
The last full year of the Franklin half — struck just before the Kennedy design took over in 1964. Sharp details on both Franklin's portrait and the Liberty Bell reverse, with light bag marks and surface hairlines consistent with a lightly circulated or slider example. Still a bright, attractive coin. Details: - Date: 1963 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — verified on reverse) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Franklin Half Dollar (1948–1963) - Silver content: 90% silver, pre-1965 Circulated with light wear; details remain crisp and the luster is largely intact. A solid example of the final Franklin issue. The Franklin half was the last US coin designed by John Sinnock — the same sculptor whose initials "JS" on the Roosevelt dime once sparked a Cold War rumor that the design honored Joseph Stalin. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
