Product Information

Own a piece of American history with the 1952-D Franklin half dollar, a beautiful coin that features symbols representing liberty, justice, and freedom. The reverse side of this exquisite silver half dollar depicts the historic Liberty Bell and is so finely detailed that even the crack in the bell shows. Surrounding this American monument are the words "E. Pluribus Unum" and an eagle with its wings spread wide. The obverse, or front, side of the coin features the profile of the iconic author, printer, politician, and scientist Benjamin Franklin with the word "Liberty" printed in bold lettering above his head. The Founding Father was recognized for his diverse expertise in a variety of subject areas. Designed by John R. Sinnock, this is a fine addition to any numismatist's collection. The 1952 Franklin half dollar is made from a grade of silver metal that is hard to come by. Nellie Taylor Ross, who was the mint director between 1933 to 1953, wished to place the Founding Father on a coin. The artist, John R. Sinnock, originally designed a medal that included a portrait of Franklin. This inspired the manufacturing of this half dollar that honors the legendary American patriot and scholar. Sinnock began designing the coin in 1947, and his successor, Gilroy Roberts, completed the design. This item displays the "D" mint mark, which is proof that it was produced by the Denver Mint. An “S,” representing Sinnock’s initials, is featured on the cutoff of Franklin’s shoulders. Only 25,395,600 of this symbolic piece of currency were made in 1952 by the Denver Mint. These half-dollar metal coins are comprised of an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper. Their diameter is 3 millimeters, and they weigh approximately 12.5 grams each. The 1952-D Franklin half dollar silver coin is a unique collector’s item that symbolizes American history. This iconic symbol on the coins represents freedom and unity for the American people. A small eagle is depicted next to the bell, which fulfills the legal requirements for the silver half dollar. The 1952 Franklin half dollar is an iconic treasure piece that can help build your personal coin collection. This coin is both a collector's item and legal U.S. tender. These coins are slightly larger and thicker than standard quarters. These U.S. commemorative silver coins also have reeded edges, which helps to give them a more embossed overlay. Many collectors seek out all of the D mint coins to complete their collections. This rare type of coin was minted from 1948 to 1963, and it commemorates an important era of history for those who value the legacy of American independence. This silver currency was replaced by the Kennedy half dollar in 1964. The 1952 Franklin half dollar’s historical significance makes it ideal for framing. Aside from coin collections, this iconic silver coin can also become a cherished addition to collections of historic political memorabilia. Its symbolic nature representing an important figure and an iconic piece of American history adds to its overall appeal.
