There is a 1991 silver proof 50c coin (N#46754) that is listed separately to its non-proof versions (N#1379).

 

Should these not be combined as they are for the 20c for example (N#1383)?

Usually Proofs are made of the same material as the circulating coins (as for the 20 cents coin in your example).  That is not the case here.  The proofs for the 50 cent coins are of a different material (silver vs. copper-nickel) and have different KM numbers.  They belong on separate pages.

 

See, for example, N#6731 and N#335658 and the discussion that led to their separation.  https://en.numista.com/forum/topic117079.html

Proof coins struck in a metal different to the non-Proof coins warrant separate listings.

 

This is very true where the 500 Mils, 50 Cents, & 1 Pound from Cyprus exists in both Cupro-Nickel & Silver.
