Heavy Coin
Heaviest Coin Minted in the USA?
Hi There!
What was the heaviest coin ever minted by the U.S. Mint?
Could be gold, silver, base metals … whatever!
Many thanks!

I am thinking it was the 1915 Panama-Pacific commemorative $50 gold piece. According to coinresource.com it weighted 83.55 grams. Since gold is one of the densest precious metals and the $50 gold piece is the largest ever produced by the US mint this is a pretty good guess.
Excellent question.
