All images of the Liberty Bell on Franklin half dollars (and, indeed, in real life) show a crack in the bell.
To determine its value you have to know the coin's date and whether there's a mint mark letter over the bell. Then please post a new question with that information.
All Franklin half dollars have the "cracked bell" it adds nothing to the value.
That's the bicentennial dollar, extremely common, and still worth one dollar.
It is known how it cracked and when.
A bell A bell can be cracked (like the liberty bell) A bell can be made (in a bell foundry) A bell can be told (rung) A bell can be played (as part of an orchestra) A joke!

As you can tell from looking below the bell, the coin is a half dollar. Also, if you check any history book you'll find that the Liberty Bell really does have a crack in it.
The Liberty Bell has never been "celebrated". It was rung on July 4, 1775 ( hence the name Liberty Bell) and it cracked, so it hasn't rung since.
Becuase at the time the bell was rang so often that it cracked. then they tried to fix it and did so. then they rang it so much again that it cracked all the way up and the liberty bell cannot ring again.
