HairyCoinNoob Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 02/03/2020 9:30 pm I have this (1776-1976 - Liberty - Half Dollar) and its in this protective type of molding? Or whatever you call that. So maybe its special or something, I HOPE SO! it says 50th Anniversary Prins Insurance in it. What the heck is prins insurance? lol. also, just so you know, that stain and little scraches are all on the cube thing. not the coin. (figured you know that) but just making sure lol. is it rare or worth anything? Report this Post to the Staff

On the interwebs I see multiple Prins Insurance companies.

Yes for sure you will see multiple opinions, even on this one website. To me, at least, this is worth only face value and if someone is going to offer you a premium for it, then I would take it. Or maybe I'm just missing something?

CherryPicker1 Pillar of the Community United States 646 Posts	Posted 02/04/2020 10:35 pm A lot of websites and youtubers will talk about common coins saying theyre extremely rare and worth tons of money because, well, thats what gets them views. Usually, if anything, it would have to be insanely high grade to be worth anything. This half dollar is only worth face value unfortunately. Report this Post to the Staff
