    942.873003 Oz. or 26,730 grams (1 Morgan = 26.73 gram)

    That would be 58.9295627 pounds.

    In what weight system? Troy or avoirdupois? There is a distinct difference. There are 31.103 grams in a troy ounce, therefore each Morgan dollar weighs .8594 troy ounce. 1,000 morgan dollars weigh 859.402 troy ounces, or 53.7 troy pounds.image Since Morgan dollars are 90% silver by composition, 1,000 of them would consist of 48.33 troy pounds of pure silver.
