The U.S. Coinage Act of April 2, 1792 states ONE DOLLAR ($1.00) or UNIT is to contain 371.25 grains (24.057 grams or .77344 ozt) pure SILVER and it also specified issuing three Gold Coins
or email: ccbullioncoins@gmail.com
7
a TEN DOLLAR EAGLE ($10.00) or UNIT is to contain 247.5 grains (16.04 grams or .51562 ozt), Five Dollar Half Eagle ($5.00)(8.02 grams) and a Quarter Eagle ($2.50)(4.01 grams) of pure GOLD. NOTHING about a Paper Currency
8
The Act also stated the Gold/Silver Ratio to be set at 15 to 1. (Current estimates of what's been extracted from Earth's crust over the millenniums the G/S ratio is roughly 9 to 1.)
9
It really was a Trimetallic System because on May 8, 1792 the Act provided for Copper Coins in One Cent (1/100th of a dollar) and a Half Cent (1/200th) to be used in commerce alongside the Silver and Gold Coins
10
In the 1792 era Gold was value at about $19.39 per ozt / Silver at about $1.29 per ozt = Gold/Silver Ratio of 15.03 to 1.
Example: 1,066.545 ounces of Copper (CU) = 15 ounces of Silver (AG) = 1 ounce of Gold (AU)
11
Copper to Silver Ratio historical ranges ( Ancient Egypt, Ancient Rome and the Byzantine Empires up thru the 20th Century) stayed between roughly 1 ozt Copper ozt / Silver ozt Ratio of .10 to .30 to 1
12
For calculating purposes only, I'm using the Large Copper Cents (100% Copper) dates 1796 to 1857 28.57mm diameter with 11 pennyweights in each one (1/100th of a Dollar). I'm not using any Numismatic premiums because of rarity, condition or year minted
13
During the Middle Ages in England a pennyweight was 24 grains = 1.5517384 grams (originally called Tower weight which became TROY weight over time) So, 11 pennyweight * 1.5517384 = 17.069123 grams of pure Copper in ONE U.S. Large Cent
14
So, converting 1 lb avoirdupois (16oz) to 1 lb troy (12oz) = 14.58333ozt weight. Example: if Copper pound AV (16 oz) is valued at $5.00. Troy weight value would be .911458 * $5.00 = $4.557290 per Troy pound, then divide by 12 = 0.379775 per ozt
15
Relative values of mandated Federal Minimum HOURLY Wages from 1955 to 1966 PAID in comparing wages received in 90% U.S. Coin Silver or Copper Coins today's value, instead of FIAT Currency. Calculations are GROSS WAGES only.
16
Some States may have had or currently do have higher minimum hourly wage rates than those of the Federal government requirements. Since 2009 Federal Minimum Wage has been fixed at $7.25 per hour paid in FIAT Paper Currency ONLY
