Product Details: This second-year proof issue represents a significant early milestone in the Franklin Half Dollar series, struck during the post-war resurgence of the Philadelphia Mint’s proof program. Certified by NGC as PF 65, this 'Gem Proof' specimen exhibits sharp, well-defined strikes and the vibrant, mirror-like luster characteristic of high-quality early 1950s coinage. The obverse features the dignified portrait of Benjamin Franklin by John R. Sinnock, while the reverse showcases the iconic Liberty Bell in impressive detail. With a relatively low mintage compared to later years, this 90% silver coin is a sophisticated addition for collectors seeking to complete a high-grade proof set of mid-century American classics.
