Notes: 75% of the Half Dollars issued in the year 1960 were Ben Franklins minted in Denver. The mint mark is on the reverse above the liberty bell. Many coins sold with FBL (full bell lines). If the lines are struck and clean on the bell then the coin is worth much 2x, 3x, maybe even 4x the listed high price.

In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around $12.00, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $270 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale.
