How much is a Liberty Bell half dollar?

Answer 1

These coins are actually called Franklin Half Dollars.

1958 is not a rare date. In circulated condition, its value will be based on the silver it contains -- about 1/3 the price of an ounce of silver.

A nice uncirculated one may bring 2 or 3 times that much.

Answer 2

There is no such coin. The Liberty Bell appeared on the back of the Bicentennial dollars dated 1776-1976 and Franklin half dollars from 1948 to 1963.

Dollars struck in 1898 carry the so-called Morgan design with an eagle on the reverse side. See the Related Question for more information.

Answer 3

US half dollars from 1948-1963 are FRANKLIN half dollars, the guy on the front of the coin is Ben Franklin. As to value uncirculated coins are $8.50 retail if the coin is circulated about $4.00 just for the silver.

Answer 4

The Liberty Bell is on the reverse (tails) side of the Franklin half dollar. One is currently worth at least $8 for the silver, and a little more if it's in particularly good condition.

The 1949 Franklin half isn't rare, so the value is mainly for its silver content. It's worth $10 to $30 depending on condition, and bit more if it's a '49-S.
