1961 Franklin Half Dollar, 90% Silver

A nice example of the Franklin Half Dollar — one of the more handsome coins the US Mint produced in the mid-20th century. Both sides photograph well, with the Liberty Bell reverse showing good detail on the bell and the small eagle to the right. Details: - Date: 1961 - Mint mark: Philadelphia (no mint mark — checked reverse) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Franklin Half Dollar (1948–1963) - Silver content: 90% silver (pre-1965) Circulated with light to moderate wear; details are clear and the coin has a pleasant even tone with no obvious damage or cleaning. A solid 90% silver piece. The Franklin Half Dollar was struck only from 1948 to 1963 — it was retired the very next year to make way for the Kennedy Half Dollar following President Kennedy's assassination in November 1963. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
