š„ Lot of 10 ā 1963-D Benjamin Franklin Half Dollars ā 90% Silver ā $5 Face ā Circulated but Still Charming š„
š© Step right up, numismatic adventurers! Youāre looking at a 10-piece silver symphony starring none other than Benjamin Franklināprinter, inventor, kite-flyer, and the only Founding Father cool enough to skip the presidency and still land on currency.
š° Whatās in the Vault?
⢠10 genuine 1963-D Franklin Half Dollars
⢠Each coin is 90% silver, 10% copperābecause even Ben knew alloys matter
⢠Total silver weight: approx. 3.6 troy ounces (thatās 112 grams of Founding Father fabulousness)
⢠Minted in Denver (hence the āDā), where cowboys and coin presses once roamed
⢠Business strike, circulatedāthese coins have seen things, like bell-bottoms and disco
š Condition: Circulated, with character! These coins have the kind of patina that says, āIāve been places, kid.ā Expect wear, toning, and the occasional whisper of history.
š Size Matters: Each coin is 30.6 mm in diameter and weighs 12.5 grams. Thatās roughly the size of a mini pancake, but way more valuable and less sticky.
šļø Reverse Design: Liberty Bell (cracked, but still ringing) + a tiny eagle whoās clearly photobombing. Itās like the coin version of a group selfie from 1776.
š¤ Obverse Design: Olā Ben Franklin, looking contemplative and slightly judgmental. Heās probably wondering why we havenāt invented a better way to toast bread.
š Fun Fact: 1963 was the final year of the Franklin Half Dollar before JFK took over the 50Ā¢ spotlight. These coins are the last hurrah of a silver eraālike the Beatles before the mop tops.
š Why Buy?
⢠Silver content = real value, not just shiny bragging rights
⢠Great for stacking, gifting, flipping, or just admiring while sipping tea and pondering electricity
⢠Perfect for history nerds, silver bugs, and anyone who thinks Ben Franklin wouldāve crushed it on TikTok
š Bonus Idea: Wrap these in parchment and pretend youāre delivering colonial treasure. Or just use them to win arguments about inflation.
