to answer your questions...
yes a half dollar is significantly smaller than a silver dollar, but bigger than a gold dollar..
and the largest most magicians use a silver dollar,
most use either half or quarters..
and regular gaffs are easier to find than morgan, and you wouldnt want a morgan gaff, unless you had 2 or 3 morgans to match
hope i helped!

in 3fry, there are no gaffs, and i have no trouble finding half or whole dollar coins....check out ebay if you are having that much trouble.

50cent pieces are 30mm in diameter.
Eisenhower dollars are ~38mm in diameter. I believe the older dollar coins like the Peace Dollar and Morgan are the same size.

why does everyone keep confusing walking liberties as dollar sized?
A WALKING LIBERTY IS A HALF DOLLAR!!
the liberty silver dollar is the SEATED Liberty dollar.
glad we got that cleared up.....

You are of course correct, my bad. I collect coins so I should know better. (I corrected my original post).
