Half dollars dated 1964 and before are 90% silver and worth about $11 for their silver content. Half dollars dated 1965-1970 are 40% silver and worth about $4.50 for their silver content. Half dollars 1971-present are only worth 50 cents unless in a mint set. No Kennedy half dollar other than an error coin or a proof is worth more than melt (or in the case of the 1971-present, face) value.
It depends on the year.
1964: $12
1965-70: $5
1971-present: 50 cents
Depends on the date.
1964 ones are 90% pure silver and worth about $8 in silver scrap regardless of the condition.
1965-1970 dated halves are 40% pure silver and worth about $3.25 or so in silver scrap regardless of the condition.
Coins dated 1971-present are copper-nickel and in circulated condition are just worth 50 cents.
Of course, coins in excellent condition will fetch more than silver scrap, as can well-struck proof (or special mint set) coins. Naturally the scrap price of the silver coins will fluctuate based on the price of silver.
All of them are common, even in uncirculated condition and the only ones with a premium over melt/face are uncirculated 1970-D coins and coins still in mint rolls or mint packaging. All 1964 halves are 90% silver and worth about $13 for their silver content. All 1965-1970 halves are 40% silver and worth about $5 for their silver content. All circulation half dollars dated 1971-present are copper-nickel and are worth no more than face value.
