US Coin Relative Sizes Chart

  1. Hey, everyone. I wanted to share a small infographic with you that I made. It shows what each type of US coin would look like if stacked on top of each other. It's amazing to see the range of sizes from the massive silver dollars to the tiny gold dollars. Think: a Morgan dollar could almost completely cover three gold dollars in a line!

    The colors are from the headers of the corresponding coin's section in my Redbook.

    I hope you enjoy! US Coins Relative Size.png

    I'm not sure if I under the scaling of 1 pixel to 1/10 millimeters but the scaling is obviously incorrect. Despite this fact, it is proportional and an interesting correlation.
     
  4. When viewed at full size, ten pixels of this image should represent one millimeter. As in, the circle for the 38.1 mm silver dollar is 381 pixels in diameter. It isn't the clearest scale, I know. But like you said, it's proportional. The relative size is correct.
