Recently after my father died, I have started sorting through his stuff. He wasn't a coin collector like frequent here. He bought what he liked for his own reasons.
The photo of 3 copies of a US coin that has a copy or serial number on each.
I would like to know if they are solid one ounce silver, plated /clad etc. They have the luster as the one ounce liberty's the mint sells. but no proof mark on them.
Since they were purchased for his grand children and himself.
He didn't save the paperwork that came with them. I have no clue to were even to start looking?
Can anybody help?
Thanks

This is a replica of a 1889 CC Morgan dollar. There are several companies that make these, most are silver plated, some are 1 ounce silver rounds. They look similar to the ones discussed here https://goccf.com/t/141833.

They are generic silver rounds. Companies make them to mimic various classic coins. the U.S. Hobby Act requires that all copies of genuine coins be clearly marked " copy "

It is basically worth the silver content. Which usually is 1oz of .900 or .999 silver.

These however, Kelly beat me to it with better info
