Franklin Half dollars
Issued from 1948 to 1963, the Franklin half dollar replaced the Walking Liberty
half dollar. Featuring the bust of Benjamin Franklin on the obverse and the
famed Liberty Bell on the reverse, as well as a very small eagle. The eagle was
required by law as a design element on the coin and thus appears more of an after thought. A complete collection of this series is very affordable, even in uncirculated grades and is very popular to collect.
