Sell Franklin Half Dollars in Farmington Hills, MI — Top Cash Paid at Westland Exchange

Franklin halves ran 1948 to 1963 — 90% silver, 12.5 grams, and a series that's affordable to collect and easy to sell. Most circulated Franklins are silver-value coins, but full-bell-lines uncirculated examples and the 1955 'Bugs Bunny' variety are collector material.

Farmington Hills sits about 12 miles from our counter — roughly 20 minutes door to door. Take Middlebelt south to Warren Ave, then east. If you are starting near Heritage Park and Costick Center, it is a straight, easy run with no downtown traffic to fight.

Farmington Hills is a straight drive south on Middlebelt. We buy a lot of estate jewelry, gold coins and luxury watches from Farmington Hills.

Selling franklin half dollars here rather than shipping it away means you see the scale, you see the test, and you leave with cash in hand instead of waiting on a mailed check from an out-of-state refiner. Farmington Hills customers do this every week, and most of them tell us the drive was shorter than they expected.

We are open monday – friday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM and saturday 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Bring a valid photo ID — Michigan law requires it for any pawn or purchase — along with the franklin half dollars itself, and the whole visit usually takes a few minutes.
