how much silver is in a 1922 peace dollar

[JamesFitz]

Hello! That's a great question about a classic American coin.

While the provided search results focus on the collectible value and grade of a 1922 Peace Dollar, they don't specify its silver content. Based on standard numismatic information, I can certainly give you the details on that.

A 1922 Peace Dollar contains 0.7734 troy ounces of pure silver.

All Peace Dollars, regardless of the year or mint mark, were made with a composition of 90% silver and 10% copper. The total weight of the coin is 26.73 grams, which means the actual silver weight comes out to about 24.057 grams. This standard composition is what gives the coin its intrinsic, or "melt," value, which is separate from its value to collectors.
