Hello. Brand new to the site - first post. I have to just correct AdamsSamoa math on the commemmorative weight specifications. "...... silver commms are 26.73 grams.... .942873 oz.....90% silver.....so about .85 oz of silver each." Everything is correct except that 26.73 grams x 0.9 = 24.057 grams of silver or 0.7735 oz. of Ag (same as Morgan and Peace dollars). Good to be here, looking forward to reading more info and opinion from everyone.
