So the purchase cost was at least $1000 (in 1975$) but today it's only worth what

someone is willing to pay for it. I just donated my collection to the local elementary

school. I did some research last year, and didn't see it selling for more than $100.

When I researched it today, I couldn't find any matches.

Franklin Mint silver (sterling) is usually worth 90% of the current silver spot metal price times the weight of the silver piece. The Franklin Mint siver bicentennial medal is no exception.

Try auctioning the piece on eBay first. Put a lot of hype in the description such as the Mint used (and uses) to market the medal(s). I've found the best thing to do with my Franklin Mint collectables is show them off, pass them down to your children, or give the items away as gifts. I'm not being sarcastic. Think of them as enjoyable and interesting collectables and not investments.

About $16 or so for the silver scrap value. The coins are so common they have no numismatic premium. In such a set, the dollar, quarter and half-dollar are all 40% silver.
