Establish if your dollars are

• Morgan Dollars

You can do this by looking at the date

Take the current price of silver (lets say it is $16.50) and do the following calculations

• Trade Dollars = 16.50 x 0.78761 x the number of coins you have
• Morgan Dollars = 16.50 x 0.77343 x the number of coins you have
• Peace Dollars = 16.50 x 0.77343 x the number of coins you have

The second figure in the calculation is the ounce amount of silver in the coin
