How much money do you need to invest in silver?

Technically, you need however much an ounce of silver costs when you go in to buy it. Coin dealers sell a "bullion coin" called the Silver Eagle that contains one ounce of sterling silver; you can buy one and say you have invested in silver. One ounce ain't gonna get you far, folks. In reality, serious investing in silver starts with 100 troy ounces of metal. And you're better off if you've got at least 1000 ounces of it.

How many ounces of silver in a half dollar?

Presently there is no silver in the US half dollar. Until 1964 dimes, quarters and half dollars (and earlier dollars) contained 900/1000 (.900) Silver. In 1964 there were 11.25 grams of silver in a half dollar which is about 0.3620 troy ounces of silver. (Note that a troy ounce used for precious metals is about 31.1034 grams whereas a avoirdupois ounce is about 28.4 grams and a troy pound is 12 troy ounces rather than 16). After 1964 silver was removed from dimes and quarters (except special sets of quarters) and in the half dollar the silver was reduced to 4.60 grams (1965-1970). This was known as "clad" halves because the outside was .800 silver and the inside .210. After 1970 silver was removed from all regular issue US coinage. There was also a clad special issue of the 1776-1976 bicentennial half. Sterling silver is .925 and pure is considered at least .999.Presently there is no silver in the US half dollar.
