Half Dollars

|
|
The 1794 Flowing Hair Half Dollar is the first fifty-cent coin struck by the U.S. Mint. The U.S. Mint has been striking half dollars ever since. These include the seven main designs: Draped Bust,
Capped Bust, Seated Liberty, Barber, Walking Liberty, Franklin and Kennedy varieties. All were silver coins up through 1970. Since then, only special Proof Condition Kennedy Half Dollars contain silver. They're fun to collect by
design variety or in complete sets.
