Hello! I'm new to all of this and stumbled upon this website... Sobering if anyone could help me out and let me know what you think the value of this coin is?! It's a 1915 Half Dollar. It appears to have a couple 'cracks' in it so unsure if these are from the printing process or if there just something that came with the age of wear & tear... Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

A genuine 1915 Barber half dollar from Phila w/o a mintmark would be a good date.
I hope you post a coin picture that isn't as bad as you think it is.

Welcome! Assuming you're asking about a U.S. half dollar, that in question would be a Barber half dollar (1892-1916). If no mint mark is located directly below the eagle's tail on the reverse it would have been struck at Philadelphia. D for Denver, S for San Francisco other wise. Mint marks factor into value, so again assuming it's from Philadelphia and smooth grading About Good (AG), $10.00 would be about right retail. One grade higher and that jumps to almost thirty. What I'd suggest is the Barber Coin Collector Society's website http://www.barbercoins.org/Barber-H...rading.shtml since they are very strict on grading these. Photos of each grade included.
