[QUOTE="littlehugger, post: 3597728, member: 58633"]Franklins were never popular, even though they were big silver. Back in their day, people did not carry them because of their size and weight. So, its not hard to find good examples. However, they are obsolete coins. Not made anymore. Plus, large silver. People covet that. Especially the ignorant. A numismstist would probably only pay melt. But most people, seeing a coin like that, would gladly pay more. Halves are no longer silver and no longer circulate. Most people have never seen one. Some kid got arrested at school for a $2 bill! Thats the level of ignorance. Have a yard sale and watch them sell.[/QUOTE]
