1957 Franklin Half Dollar, 90% Silver

A classic mid-century silver half dollar — Ben Franklin on the obverse, the Liberty Bell on the reverse, just as John Sinnock designed them. Both photos are clear and the details read well. Details: - Date: 1957 - 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-to-moderate wear; lettering and bell details remain crisp, with some minor surface marks consistent with age. A solid circulated example. Fun fact: The Franklin Half Dollar was the only U.S. coin to feature a non-president on the obverse during its entire run — Benjamin Franklin never held that office, but the U.S. Mint figured the man who discovered electricity and helped found the nation earned a spot in your pocket. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
