  • Answer:

    DO NOT POLISH IT !!! Condition is everything in coins. Keep it as is,if you polish it you will loose value. Your photo shows the reverse,to give a condition,I would need to see the obverse as well.

go to ebay and find out what other people are selling the same silver dollar for. Then try to price it according to that. Also try finding a coin collectors shop and get their opinoin on the matter. Much luck!

It depends very much on the condition. Do NOT polish it -- that will reduce its value considerably.

Be very very careful when you go to polishing it because you can deflate that value a whole lot. I am not sure of the value depends on how rare the coin is, and if the still produce it anymore. Take it to a coin dealer but do not let him take it to the back make him check it in front of you and know the coin inside and out. Know what your coin looks like all distinctive markings stuff like that this is to insure that after he checks if for the value that you get your coin back and not some replacement coin.

DO NOT POLISH IT, it will ruin the value. Your coin looks to be in excellent condition. No wear on the lines in the shield. For current value, I would check out ebay.
