I'm not sure I understand your question: the price of a stamp to mail a typical letter was usually two cents from the mid 1880s till about 1917; it rose briefly to three cents, and then fell back to two cents during the 1920s. It cost three cents well into the 1940s. In the late 50s, it rose to four cents... and these days, it's not quite fifty cents-- it's currently forty-nine cents. But if you are asking when the first fifty cent definitive stamp came out, that was probably in early November 1894: The US Postal service says this stamp appeared in the first definitive series printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and it showed an image of Thomas Jefferson.
