Found this old 1918 French 50-centimes in a box of dimes last night. Please help ID, face value at the time of minting, appears to be silver (non magnetic), tell me what you can on it.

MACKAYDON: this ones for you to ID for sure, with all your expertise.

Looks like you already have ID'd it. What more do you need to know? Current value? Probably just it's silver value.......at .825 purity......what.....maybe a dollar if you're lucky.
 

.8350 silver , minted in paris with no mintmark , diam 18.00 , wght 2.5000 grm , common coin, but nice :icon_thumleft:-----100 centimes = 1 franc / 50 centimes = 1/2 franc

Thanks for the input guys, I'll put it with my OLDER coins, plus being silver helps answer the next question as "keep it, or spend it". KEEP...I'm not that much into foreign coins, just a casual keeper.
Hi, Don, I knew you'd also pick up on this., tks.
