Half dollar mintages have generally been the lowest of America's circulation coinage. For example, only one of this first-date 1948 Franklin silver half dollar was struck for every ten Washington quarters and every 23 Roosevelt dimes! Between the Philadelphia and Denver Mint, just over seven million 90% Franklins were struck; later individual mintages in the series would reach as high as 67 million! Nicely detailed Very Fine quality. Our choice of mintmark.
