First off, WHY DO YOU HAVE A TWO AND A HALF DOLAR GOLD PIECE??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!
Post a new question and include the date, mintmark, and condition.
Half a dollar. Idiot.
It's right in the name "Half-dollar" half of a dollar is 50 cents.
There is no silver in a 1972 US half dollar.
if you have a dollar it costs 42, then your quarter dollar costs 21. Its just half the dollar
The 1905 Half Eagle [$5] bears a portrayal of Lady Liberty.
It's not a specific person - it's a stylized portrait of a Native American

The US has never made a gold half dollar.
The U.S. half dollar has never been made of gold. What you probably have is a gold-plated 1979 half-dollar. It's not really worth much above face value.
I suggest a collector, coin show or a coin dealer. Those are the safest places
Around $140 if very worn, up to about $200 in nearly-new condition.
U.S. half dollars were never made of gold.
The US ten dollar gold piece (the Eagle) has just under a half ounce of gold in it. Check the current price of gold (today it is around $1,400 per ounce) to get the first answer. The second issue is rarity and condition of the coin. Check a coin pricing website once you have gotten a condition grade on your coin.
The sets were made in proof and uncirculated versions but the retail values are the same at $300.00 mostly for the $5.00 gold coin.
The U.S. Mint has never struck a gold half dollar. The coin has likely been plated for use as jewelry or sold as a so-called collectible. The piece has no numismatic collectible value. It's considered an altered coin and is only worth face value.
The only gold Bicentennial of Congress coin minted is a Five dollar coin not a half dollar, it is valued at about $300.00.
