The Morgan silver dollar was not produced in the United States after 1921, and the Peace Dollar was only produced until 1935. In fact, I don't believe that there were any coins produced in the world in 1939 with the denomination of One Dollar.
The United States last minted silver dollars in 1935, then reintroduced the large dollar in 1971. There are no dollars for any of the 1940s, '50s, or '60s.
All Morgan dollars (named for their designer George T. Morgan) have the same reverse image: an eagle with outstretched wings, surrounded by a wreath, the words In God We Trust, United States of America, and One Dollar.
Yes, yes I can. In 1878 the United States Mint first started minting the Morgan Dollar series which continued on until 1921 when it was replaced by the Peace Dollar. Below is a link to a photograph of an 1878 Uncirculated Morgan Dollar.
A Morgan silver dollar, which was minted in the United States from 1878 to 1904, and again in 1921, is composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. Each coin weighs approximately 26.73 grams, and the amount of silver in each coin is about 24.057 grams. The copper content in the coin is used to give it strength and durability, as pure silver is relatively soft and would be prone to damage from regular handling.
Bolender shows a large number of varieties. There's more information at the Related Link.
Yes, Morgan dollars are made of 90% silver and 10% copper. They were minted in the United States from 1878 to 1904, and again in 1921.

If it was minted in or before 1935, it's 90% silver out of a total weight of 26.73 grams. If it's a circulating Eisenhower dollar from the 1970s, then it contains no silver at all.

26.730 grams is the weight standard for all US silver dollars from 1840 to1935.
THERE WERE NO SILVER DOLLARS MINTED IN THE UNIITED STATES AT ALL WITH A 1920 DATE! IF SOMEONE IS SELLING YOU SOMETHING LIKE THIS DO NOT BELEIVE IT!
No. The US has never and will never make pure silver dollars.
The original dollar coin was made of Silver. The current dollar coins are made of Copper, Zinc, Manganese, and Nickel by the United States mint. The Morgan Silver Dollar is prized by coin collectors.
