What are your ideas on getting the public to widely use half dollar and

The designs don't matter, the utility does.

Or, make use of Gresham's Law and give the other denominations some
real value by adding silver and copper, and suddenly people will
gladly spend the halves and dollar coins.

Um. How will that work? There are plenty of silver halves out there
now that no one spends. Dollars too. Not to mention all those eagles
and fractions.
