What is the value of a s marked 1943 Walking Liberty silver half-dollar?
The 1943-S Walking Liberty half dollar is not has common as no mint mark coins of the same date but does not carry much additional value. Most coins of this era show heavy wear. With silver now so high ($35) as I write this, the coin's value is mostly from the silver content. As silver as increased in price, the numismatic value has been passed. Based on silver, most dealers would give you around $10.00 for it if in average condition. if cleaned/abused then less. If this was in Mint State, then much more.

Has the value of old US silver coins increased proportionately or significantly higher this year due to the higher price of silver Do you expect this to continue as the silver price rises?
Common date silver coins follow the spot silver value. A dollars worth of 90% silver coins contains about .72 troy ounces of silver, so .72 X Spot is the "melt value." Dealers will usually buy for about 90% of melt and sell for 110%. Numismatic values of scarcer coins will increase with the spot price, too, but not proportionally. When silver prices hit $50, many coins with a small collector value disappeared because they were worth more to melt, and those worth a significant premium hit new highs, too.
Which coins go up the quickest in value?
Gold and silver coins
