1959 Franklin Half Proof 68 6891.68-01670068006303810009

The 1959 Franklin Half Dollar in Proof 68 represents one of the finest certified examples of this classic mid-century American coin. The Franklin Half Dollar series, struck in 90% silver, features a dignified portrait of Benjamin Franklin on the obverse and the Liberty Bell on the reverse — a design that has long been a staple of mid-20th-century U.S. coinage collections. A Proof 68 certification from NGC places this coin at an exceptional level of preservation, with the sharp cameo-like detail and mirror-like surfaces characteristic of Proof coinage of this era. This is a strong addition to any collection focused on Franklin halves, Proof silver coinage, or mid-century U.S. type coins.
