I have a seated liberty obverse heraldic eagle with no cc or in god we trust. It's not magnetic. But weighs 17 grams. Can someone give me some information on this coin.

17 gram silver dollar has to be fake. 1963 silver dollar as to be fake. Post 1891 seated currency has to be fake.

Anything else :) ?

Not having a CC mint mark or the motto IN GOD WE TRUST does not mean it is a counterfeit since this type dollar was made at multiple mints and they were struck without the motto from 1836 to 1865 and with motto from 1866 to 1873. The weight is a dead give away that the coin is no good a geniune one should weigh 26.73 grams in high grade and just slightly less in good to very good condition. The ring of the coin when dropped will be flat and a real silver dollar will have a much higer tone. If you have a raw Morgan or Peace dollar drop it an inch or two onto the table and then drop this Seated Liberty dollar, I am certain they won't sound the same.

You are the proud owner of a CF-S$1-1963-0001, a counterfeit with some notoriety. :-)

I don't have it up on The Black Cabinet yet, but here is it's mate, the CF-S$1-1963CC-0001:

They're part of the same fake set. :-)

thanks for looking
