Answer:
Total silver value is $1,810.18.
Statistics:
» There are 132.8083 troy ounces of silver in 898 silver 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollar(s).
» Each 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollar contains 0.1479 troy ounces of silver and is valued at $2.02 when silver is at $13.63 / oz.
» A roll of 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollars has 20 coins and is valued at $40.32 when silver is at $13.63 / oz.
Bid/Ask Spread:
Physical silver shortages are being reported across the country. In the past, most "junk silver" coins on eBay often sell between a +/- 5% spread of the melt value. For example, if you have a silver coin that has a $1.00 melt value, you should be able to find someone who's willing to buy/sell it between $0.95 - $1.05. However, I think we've reached a point where you should buy what you can, wherever you can.
If you're planning to buy/sell 898 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollar(s) when silver is priced at $13.63 / oz, expect the final total to fall between $1,719.67 - $1,900.69.
eBay Auctions (1965-1970 Kennedy Half Dollar Listings Only):
I believe that the old saying, "A coin is only worth what someone will pay for it," is absolutely true. I like eBay because it displays what people are actually paying for coins. Monthly coin price magazines and online price lists may not reflect current market conditions because they don't demonstrate what people are actually willing to pay.
