Any Proof 1950 Franklyn are expensive, $175 is a good price, I believe! . . . Do you mean inside one of these? . . . . Note: No Mint Sets were issued for that year!

Vector Ze Valued Member United States 465 Posts	Posted 03/27/2026 10:40 am The 1950 Proof Franklin ALONE is worth more than $175, assuming it's in decent condition. I wish I could find a deal like this. Report this Post to the Staff
