Many countries have changed their coin compositions over the years. The reasons can be due to metal changes, size changes, etc.
Another reason is that circulation will wear down a coin, so that an older specimen actually has slightly less metal on it than when it was new.

Um, it would depend on the dragon. If it's a bigger dragon, then it would be less, if it's a smaller dragon or young dragon, then it would be more.
