Question
what is a 1845 half cent worth ?

Answer
Hello Ann,
Depending upon the condition of the coin, an 1845 US Half Cent has a retail value starting at $500 and going up from there.
Without seeing the coin, I can't give you an exact number.  If you are interested in selling it, I would need to see it and authenticate it first, then grade it, to determine it's value.
