A 1950 Prf-65 is priced at $500 in the 2010 Red Book; a 1955 Prf-65 is $90 (lower mintage); and a 1959 is priced at $25. (these were all made with 90% Silver). A 1961 "Clad" (no silver) is $20. These are examples. Check online to find out the going rate on websites such as coinbug.com or ebay.com.

If the coin is not "shiny" and without blemish, it is considered a "circulated" coin and would be worth its silver content which is about $6 with silver at about $16. This half has 90% silver content.

Keep in mind that actual price you can get from any coin will vary. For example if you sell these to a dealer they will want to make a profit upon resale so they will not pay as much as a collector would.

On the low range some may be worth around $6.00, but if they are in higher grades they may be worth much more. Find a good coin grading guide and grade the coins yourself or take them to a professional grading service.
