The 1916 Canadian Fifty Cent piece is a reasonably common date for its type, with a mintage of 459,070. It is 92.5% silver, and contains 0.3469 troy ounces of silver, giving it a "melt value" of about US$4.65 (as of February 13, 2009). Numismatically, the condition is the determining factor: in well circulated condition ("Very Good" is the term of art), it should retail for about US$7.00; with moderate wear ("Fine"), about US$14.00; with less wear ("Very Fine"), about US$55.00; with very little wear ("Extremely Fine"), about US$175; in Uncirculated ("MS-60"), about US$650, and in Brilliant Uncirculated ("MS-63") about $2,100.
