Correct, you would be lucky to get one 70 per roll grading with our host.
Most coins in an average roll of ASE's from your date range will be in the 67 to 68 range and occasionally as low as 65.
If you get lucky and get a few 70's it may offset your grading costs.
I would not send a random roll in for grading without screening the coins first, there is no reason to send MS66 & 67 coins in.2

Why would you? What is your goal? What are your expectations for the results vs. the value of them slabbed?
Without some knowledge of grading, probably best to sell them outright at a show.
Chances of PF70 grade is slim.
It takes a trained eye and even then...
If numismatics is something you want to pursue then hold onto them. Revisit the grading question in a year or two.

No. Just sell them as is and move on if you don't want them.

Based upon today's silver price, here are reasonable levels folks are willing to pay from one of the leading bullion dealers-

I would not.
No would not - would sell as is.
For eBay would start auction at melt.
Just for reference, here are the current buyback prices from JM Bullion:

If graded they will sell for more. But the cost of grading and the results received are a variable. I have a few rolls of 2016
ASE's and I will send one roll to ANACS for grading. They will give me a fixed price sample evaluation before I commit to grading the entire roll. Mine are original mint rolls and who know if they will grade at a better value than bullion. But ANACS approach seems very reasonable. They are worth talking to.

Have you seen what the 86’s are going for slabbed? Crazy prices on eBay, I might look a little further before I wholesale them. Or if you must, let me know🤷♂️
