Another question: Do all U.S. Silver dollars have the same specifications ( Weight, diameter, and Thickness ) irrespective of the mint mark,and year or whether it is commemorative? Sami (may I call you "Sami"?): You will probably get all the info you need by following the "Us Coin Facts" link under the "Navigation" pane to the left. Since you wrote, "1982" Trade dollar when you must have meant 1882, I assume you also meant to type 1884 and 1889. These are Morgans. The Morgans and Peace dollars are 90% silver. If you really did intend to write 1984 and 1989, you might be refering to commemorative dollars. In 1989, you might also have a silver eagle bullion coin. It is a full ounce of silver.
