    Hello I know a Peace dollar weight is 26.7 grams and 38.1 millimeter diameter but, what are the allowable tolerances? I have some and want to verify they are real. Thanks!

    Sal, I believe there are inaccuracies in this chart. I would refer anyone to a Red Book instead. IIRC the faulty data was concerning Bicentennials or coins from the ‘70s…imo…Spark

    What's wrong with it though? I don't see Bicentennials mentioned specifically at all, but the composition ought to be right.

    Thank you Sal it's a good starting point. Thanks to you too Sparks for pointing out sometimes you should have more than one source.
