Comment

This interesting piece, rather than comparing the silver content of a standard U.S. silver dollar as on pieces manufactured by Spaulding, Gorham, and others (HK-782, 783, 785), compares the size of a standard silver dollar, showing that would comfortably fit inside an area about one-half of the Tiffany silver dollar.
