It is nothing more than curiosity on my part. I believed that the weights would change, and was wondering what the difference between .900 and...
This is not a 1/off process. This will be the composition going forward. The vagueness in the law now allows them to make 90% coins if they...
They have ALWAYS been at least 90%, the law has just recently been modified. Anything .900 fine or better complies with the new standard. :)
You are correct, sir, but Paul knows his nickels, so I give him benefit of any kind of doubt. I just don’t think so, and he and I typically agree...
Me too!
There were no mass-produced proof Morgan Dollars struck at Carson City, only circulation strikes. Proof-like, yes. Proof, no.
I don’t own the coin, so I don’t know for sure, but the weight is exactly how you know it was struck on a dime planchet. It should weigh exactly 2.5g
Now we have to weigh a commemorative dollar
The coin will not make FS. There is only 4 steps under pillar 2. It’s really close, but no cigar. I wouldn’t spend the money re-submitting it, but...
It’s ok. I was able to figure it out based on knowing the weight of the Quarter, so you were actually really helpful!
The first year of something and the last year of something are typically heavily saved and therefore neither will likely appreciate much. If...
I don’t know if the 2019 Edition has the info. I am also unsure if the 2020 (current) edition has it, either.
The US government finally decided that because it was less expensive to get .999 fine blanks than .900 fine, that they would allow coins to be...
I want to acknowledge this excellent answer as it was posted during the time I was calculating and posting my findings.
I already calculated the weights based on the published weight of a 2019 silver quarter.
Yes, Chris, I am, except the latest Red Book that I have doesn't have weights for the new .999 Silver Proof Coins, so I was trying to figure it out.
yes, in fact what I need can be extrapolated from that. The half dollar will weigh twice as much, and the dime will weight .4 x the weight of the...
I was wondering if anyone had the data or if I would have to wait until I bought my silver proof set. Has anyone seen the actual weights on the...
As far as rank... I’ve gotta be in the top 5, right?
