This is a American Silver Eagle 1 ounce bullion coin. The value is tied to the spot price of silver at time of sale. As of 9-3-11 it's $43.25 per ounce. This price is a little less than you could buy it for and a little more than you could sell it for. But it gives you an idea of value.
NOTE: The spot price of silver and other precious metals changes by the minute when the market is open. So the value of this coin will go up and down.
what is the value of a 2009 silver eagle dolar
An 1841 Seated Liberty silver dollar is worth $200 or more depending on condition. However, if the coin is golden in color with a picture of William Henry Harrison, then it's a 2009 Presidential dollar, and it's worth one dollar.
because it is a newer and probably better version
Not gold, and not 5 dollars. Gold coinage in the U.S. ended in 1932/33. You have a gold-PLATED walking liberty HALF DOLLAR. The good news is that the underlying coin is 90% silver so it's worth about $4-5 at current silver prices (05/2009)
If it's from circulation it's copper-nickel, not silver, and is worth $1. If it's a 40% silver collector's coin in its original package, Numismedia lists a retail price of about $5 as of 07/2009 Note that ALL U.S. coins have the word Liberty on them so that's not an identifying piece of information.
First, the coin is a American Silver Eagle NOT a walking liberty silver dollar and were struck in each month of this year with peak production in March of more than 3 million coins struck.
Assuming you mean a Walking Liberty design bullion piece sold by the mint as a "silver eagle", its value will fluctuate with the price of silver. As of 01/2009 a $1 silver eagle retails for $10 to $11.
As of 02/2009, a 1963 Franklin-Liberty Bell half dollar is worth about $6.00 in circulated condition. Uncirculated and proof versions are about $7.50. Nearly all of that value is due to the coin's silver content, and will change along with the price of silver. http://www.ecoinprices.com/ try this site
