Please take another and much more careful look, then post a new question.

Franklin halves were made from 1948 to 1963 and have Ben's head on the front and the Liberty Bell on the back.

Walking Liberty halves were made from 1916 to 1947 and have Miss Liberty (DEFINITELY not a man!) on the front and an eagle on the back.

And finally, they're not pure silver - there's 10% copper in both types.

Do you have information on a dollar size gold coin with Benjamin Franklin on it from the Franklin mint in 1976?

Typically the value of Franklin Mint items is its the melt value. This is the value of the silver if the item was melted down for its scrap value. Keep in mind that Franklin Mint uses Sterling Silver. It is only 92.5% silver. Pure silver is 99.9% silver. So the melt value is adjusted accordingly. A good rule of thumb is to expect to get about 80% of the price of pure silver. That said, like with any collectible, it is worth what someone else is willing to pay. If you happen to find someone who whats it and values it for more than the melt value, then count yourself lucky. And sell it to them. R.H.
