1955-P & 1963-P Franklin Silver Half Dollar Pair Brilliant Uncirculated

Product Description

1955 Franklin Silver Half Dollar, Brilliant Uncirculated. In 1955, Philadelphia was the only mint that struck Franklins; just 2,498,181 of the 90% silver halves were produced, which would ultimately be the lowest output of the series. The Franklin series is a collector favorite as all issues contain silver content and there are a limited number needed to compile a complete set.

1963 Franklin Silver Half Dollar, Brilliant Uncirculated. Congress authorized the Franklin half dollar in 1948 with the expectation that it would be issued for at least 25 years. Following the assassination of President Kennedy in 1963, Congress quickly approved a new half dollar in his honor, abruptly supplanting the popular Franklin series. This 90% silver half dollar is as beautiful as the day it left the Philadelphia Mint almost six decades ago.
