Best Answer

The original 1966 was round and had an 80% silver content with 20% copper.

All subsequent 50 cent coins were 12 sided and had no silver in them at all. They are made from 75% copper and 25% nickel.

Other than the 1966 coin, all Australian 50 cent coins are potentially still in circulation so, unless they are part of a proof set or are uncirculated and in absolute mint condition, they are worth 50 cents.
