The scarcity and value depends on whether it's a British or an Australian 1/2 Sovereign as both of them look alike except for the mintmark. If there's a small "M" on the ground above the date, then it was struck at Melbourne Mint in Australia and sells around £50/US$100 each in grade gVF, with at least half mint lustre, ear well defined and no rim dents. If it has a "P" in place of the M then it's the scarcest 1/2 sovereign of Edward VII from Perth Mint in Australia and it retails for £200/US$400 each in gVF. The British 1/2 Sovereign doesn't have a mintmark and sells for £50/US$100 each in grade aEF, which is slightly better than gVF and exhibits more lustre and less wear. In grade lower than aEF, the British 1/2 sovereign sells for bullion or just slightly above. The 1/2 sovereign contains 0.1177oz of gold in mint condition, fineness of 0.917 and with bullion equivalent to about £38/US$76.

Non of the dates for Edward VII 1/2 Sovereign coins are scarce. They may sell for more in Great Britain but here in the states I can get one for about $80 in grade extra fine. That means dealers will pay less than that. Hope this helps.
