<p>[QUOTE="robec, post: 6447239, member: 19094"]I found this interesting while looking at the weight of silver dollars from every US series since 1794. There is a slight difference in the Flowing Hair, Draped Bust and Trade Dollar. Seated, Morgans and Peace are the same weight with the exception of the Morgan 1878 8TF, which is the same weight as the Trade Dollar and heavier than the Flowing Hair and Draped Bust. All have the same percentage of Silver (90%) and tin (10%).</p><p><br /></p><p>Flowing Hair - 27.00 grams</p><p>Draped Bust - 27.00 grams</p><p>Seated Liberty - 26.73 grams</p><p>Trade Dollar - 27.20 grams</p><p>Morgan 8TF - 27.20 grams</p><p>Morgan - 26.73 grams</p><p>Peace - 26.73 grams[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
