They are mostly made of silver medallions issued by the Heraldic Art Co. I'm not aware of any other metal, but it may be possible Most are common, but a few are rare. They get the name so called half dollars for the obvious reason they are the size of a half dollar. There is a book coming, but as of yet I haven't heard that its out yet.
Thanks for the information. I picked these up at auction and wondered how many more were out there. Housed in a Wayte Raymond page I thought they were very cool.

That's the one I used to have, they are really neat. As far as how many are out there, I am not sure, I don't think they are rare......but keep them in the Wayte Raymond holder!
People like them better that way and pay a premium. I think when I sold mine 2 years ago I sold it for around $200
