    Default Need Help/Advice on 1950's 1960's Liberty Half Dollars

    Long-time eBid seller here. The other day I found in an old Sentry Safe of mine a small collection of 10 Liberty half-dollars with the following dates: 1-1950, 1-1952, 2-1958, 1-1959, 2-1960, 1-1961, 1-1962, and 1-1963. I have no idea what they might be worth, but would like to know...anyone, please?

    The coins I have are Franklin half dollars, not Liberty...apologies...

    I assume you mean Franklin half dollars

    There are no 'better dates' for these

    Circulated ones are worth about $10 each as scrap .900 silver
    My clutter

    I don't play the reserve game

    These are all 90% silver. Their numismatic value would be dependent on their condition. If they are of average condition they will probably not be worth more than their silver content. At today's silver price of $28.57, this would make them worth about $10.30 each. I got this from http://www.coinflation.com/coins/sil...alculator.html If you would like to know more about their condition, go to http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/Franklin/Grades. Scroll to the left or right to find a picture that closest matches your coin. Then you can go to http://www.numismedia.com/fmv/prices...pricesgd.shtml This will give you an estimated fair market value.
    Hope this helps.

    Liberty Walking were minted from 1916-1947. Franklin Halves were minted from 1948-1963
