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. Since Morgan dollars are 90% silver by composition, 1,000 of them would consist of 48.33 troy pounds of pure silver.
