I select only the best coins with the least ware to insure a quality coin ring. I have an unconditional warranty on all my rings. If you are dissatisfied for any reason I will either replace or refund. I put a slight patina on the rings to highlight the writing. The ring can also be buffed out to a bright shine if you prefer. Simply ask for no patina when ordering. Franklin Half Dollar 1948-1963 With a big and bold "IN GOD WE TRUST" on the outer band of this ring as well as the year, the "Franklin Half Dollar" makes for a great ring with well defined lettering. The ring is 90% pure silver like our other rings and can be enjoyed and maintained in the same way as any other fine Sterling jewelry. We will automatically ship a random year based on availability of stock at the time of purchase. We can do custom years for this ring (mostly in the late 1940's to early 1960's)
