Fresh from the mint, silver halves have 0.3618 troy ounces of silver. So using that figure would mean 2.764 90% silver halves to make an ounce.
Alot of bullion dealers use a figure of 0.715 troy ounces of silver for worn coins per $1 face, so carrying that ratio/percentage over to a single half it gives 0.3575 troy ounces of silver.
Using 0.3575 as the amount of silver, it means you would need 2.797 90% silver halves to get an ounce. :)
