  • Total of 200 US half-dollar coins.
  • Face value of $100 (USD) in total, backed by the US government.
  • 90% silver content.
  • Features famous designs from US mintage history.

Before 1965, the United States Mint crafted all circulation American currency with a robust silver content of 90%. However, the shift to a copper-nickel alloy in 1965 marked a departure from this tradition, leading to the production of coins with reduced silver content. The change was driven by factors such as the escalating cost of minting coins with high silver content, where the face value often fell short of the intrinsic silver value.

This exclusive collection offers 90% Silver Half Dollars with an individual face value of $.50, potentially featuring iconic designs like the Walking Liberty Half Dollar, Franklin Half Dollar, and the inaugural release of the Kennedy Half Dollar.

The Walking Liberty Half Dollar, conceived by Adolph A. Weinman in 1916, captures the image of Liberty striding toward the setting sun, draped in the American flag with oak and laurel branches in hand—a poignant symbol of the nation's journey toward a brighter future.

Another standout is the Franklin Half Dollar, adorned with a profile portrait of Founding Father Benjamin Franklin, complemented by the Liberty Bell and the heraldic eagle of the United States. The 1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, the last to boast 90% silver content, pays tribute to President John F. Kennedy.

Your purchase ensures a bag of US half-dollar coins, guaranteeing a total face value of $100 (USD). While the specific designs may vary, each coin carries the rich history of US minting. Embrace the allure of these 90% Silver Half Dollars and witness the diverse tapestry of American coinage.
