Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

The US Mint has only made these coins intermittantly. I assume you either have Morgan dollars, minted 1878-1904 and 1921. or you have Peace dollars, 1921-1928, 1934-1935. Both are 38.1 mm diameter, weigh 26.73 g, and are 90% Ag. The next minting was Eisenhower dollars beginning 1971.

10,000 coins would weigh 267.3 kg or about 590 lb.

(The modern dollar coins, starting with Susie B. are 26.5 mm dia, 8.1 g.

Wikipedia has an overview article on US dollar coins, plus a page on each style, with good specs. Google, as I can't post the link.
