A 50 centavo silver coin of your date contains 0.193 troy oz silver which today is worth ~$5.53 cents in melt value. The coin may have collector value if in great condition, but with no picture, that cannot be evaluated.

It looks a lot more worn in the pictures than it is real life.

I found a couple on ebay for sale and the average price seemed to be $10-$20 for circulated condition and uncirculated around $40. And if you google "50 Centavos value" you will find enough results to keep you busy for awhile.

HMMM, that's the ASKING price, not necessarily the selling price! Try to find one that sold recently in that age range. KT would say closer to sllver scrap value than a collector piece from the pic.
