    If none are grading higher than G, they're worth melt, $13.16 each.

    Are you sure about the weight of 5.7 ounces? Half dollars weigh in at 12.50 grams, which is
    0.440924524 37 ounce. That's less than half an ounce.

    Each 90% silver dollar contains .36169 oz. of pure silver which would be 4.7 oz.

    5.7 avoirdupois ounces = 5.2 troy ounces

    5.2 troy ounces of 90% silver = 4.7 ounces Actual Silver Weight

    In other words, the halves weigh about what they're supposed to, and everybody's right.
