Best Answer

Franklin half dollars (which were minted between 1948 and 1963) weigh 12.5 grams and are 90% silver (the other 10% is copper) - they thus have an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.3617 troy ounces of silver. Walking Liberty half dollars (minted 1916 through 1947) and Barber half dollars (minted 1892 through 1915) have the same compositions, as do the 1964 Kennedy half dollars.
