1960-D Franklin Half Dollar MS-65 PCGS
In 1960, the Denver Mint struck this silver half dollar, a mid-century coin that honors one of America's most famous founding figures. The obverse displays a right-facing portrait of Benjamin Franklin, capturing his likeness in a thoughtful profile. Surrounding his image are the classic inscriptions of freedom and faith, including the word Liberty and the national motto, along with the date of production. Turning the coin over reveals a detailed depiction of the Liberty Bell, complete with its famous crack. To the right of the bell, a small eagle with spread wings stands as a traditional national symbol, while the motto of unity and the half dollar denomination frame the scene. This particular specimen is certified in a high-grade Mint State 65, preserving the fine details of John R. Sinnock's design in 0.3575 troy ounces of silver.
