The Liberty Bell was ordered for purchase by the colony government,
the Pennsylvania Assembly, in 1751 to be hung in the new constructed State House (Independence Hall).
The Assembly requested their London agent, Robert Charles, to purchase a bell of approximately "two thousand pounds weight".
Charles commissioned the Whitechapel Bell Foundry in London to cast the bell.
Robert Charles bill to the Province of Pennsylvania states as follows:
"1752 May To cash for the cost of a Bell
with frt (freight) & Insurance £150.13.8
(150 pounds, 13 shillings and 8 pence.)"
Pass and Stow's bill for the recasting states as follows:
"1753 June For Recasting the State house bell wt 2044 lbs
at 4 pence Sterling pr. lb. £34.1.4; For 37 lb additional wt
at 14 pence per lb. Sterling £2.3.2."
Pass and Stow's bill for the recasting of the Liberty Bell totaled £36.4.6
That's about $225 US dollars!
According to the site at the link below, the original cost of the Liberty Bell in 1751 was £150.13.8, or 150 pounds, 13 shillings, and 8 pence. Additionally, it cost £34.1.4, or 34 pounds, 1 shilling, and 4 pence, to have it recast in 1753.
The site also says that the equivalent in US currency was $225, but the conversion is wrong. The pound sterling at that time was valued at approximately $4.80, making the original price in dollars $723.28, and the cost of recasting $163.52, for a total of $886.90.
The Liberty Bell Forever stamps are the same as other first class stamps... current valve of the stamp is 44 cents. The Forever stamp is able to be used no matter what price changes they make to the stamps in the future (probably why they dont put the cost on the actual stamp)
The cost of the original bell, including insurance and shipping, was £150 13s 8d, equivalent to 20,046.35 British pounds sterling today.
It is a National treasure. You can't put a price on it.

That's the bicentennial dollar, extremely common, and still worth one dollar.
There were no silver dollars minted in 1950. The Franklin half dollar has the Liberty Bell on the reverse, The "6" above the bell must have been added after the coin left the mint. The "6' reduces the value of the coin to the value of the silver in it.
If you mean the stamps with the bell on them, that is the Liberty Bell, one of the U.S.'s great historical monuments and emblems, and not the logo of the telephone company. The stamp is worth first-class postage, meaning the cost of mailing a regular letter.
