Just wondering what the going price is these days on Kennedy 40% half dollars? I know the melt is $4.95 but is that generally also the market price, or is there a premium?
Thanks,

Not per coin, per ounce of silver, right?

Refiners do not like them because of the smelting cost. I try to avoid those.
