The U.S. Mint produces a dollar coin called the American Silver Eagle that is made of nearly pure silver. This coin has a diameter of 41 mmmm and a thickness of 2.5 mmmm. The density and approximate market price of silver are 10.5 g/cm3g/cm3 and $0.58 per gram, respectively.
Calculate the value of the silver in the coin, assuming its thickness is uniform.
Express your answer in dollars to the nearest dollar.
