I recently purchased four Calgary Stampede silver dollars. The seller advertised them as .500 silver but Numista shows them at .999. Does anyone out there have original documentation showing silver content for these coins?

Somebodey is selling the set of 4 1978 Dollars on ebay for $8.95 so I'm guessing your 78 isn't silver at all.

Going by the weights in Pelletier's book, these are not the regular nickel versions. Your first one is sterling, the other three are pure. The mintage figures you have are accurate.
