There is no such thing as an E Pluribus Unum Silver Dollar. That is simply the motto of the US, it does absolutely nothing to identify the coin other than to say it is from the US. But any US silver dollars dated from 1935 and prior are worth at least $33 or so for the silver content, any dollar coins minted after contain no silver and are only worth face value unless in proof condition.
10¢ if you found it in change.Dimes made in 1965 and later are made of copper and nickel, not silver, and are only worth face value. Check your pocket change for lots more of them. If you have a coin that appears to be silver it was probably plated for use in a bracelet or similar jewelry.Note that dimes (and quarters, nickels, and halves) minted in Philadelphia before 1980 do not have mint marks.They are still in circulation today and have only face value.
All silver dollars up until the current Sacagawea and presidential issues bore a picture of Lady Liberty. There were 2 designs struck in 1921; I assume you have the much more common variety that does NOT have the word "Peace" under the eagle on the reverse. This design is normally referred to as a Morgan dollar, after its designer. Despite its age, your coin is pretty much only worth its melt value of $12 to $14. It would still make more sense keep it or sell it to a collector instead of trying to sell it for its metal value because anyone who buys scrap coins will want to deal in bulk lots. They'll offer far less than its actual value for a single coin.

Yes, sterling silver is worth lots of money. "Sterling" refers to a high degree of purity. The value of sterling silver is quite literally the market price for silver, which as the time of this writing is about USD $31.67 per troy ounce.
Collector value of a coin depends on date, mint mark, number minted and condition of a coin, including amount of wear, any dents, scratches or cleaning as well as collector demand for it. There were no silver Pesos, only gold, minted in 1895. The mintmark letter(s) is after the 875 above the 1 on the gold Peso and would affect its value. It should weigh 1.692 grams and would contain .0476 of an ounce of gold. You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info. Brad
From the odd auction sites Ive checked this coin is worth only slightly more than the silver content (around $25 or so) unless it's in very good condition...in which case I would consult a numismatics (coin collector) expert if you possess one.
it has lots and lots of cheese in it
lots
lots and lots of toilet paper!
Don't do it! Chances are you'll melt at least a few coins(and maybe alot) that are worth many times their value in silver. If you want to sell put them up on eBay as small lots and they will still sell for slightly more than their silver value. If you sell them to a melter you'll get maybe 50% of their value as silver cause when you melt them you'll lose alot of metal. contact me at csr8008@gmail.com if you want to arrange a sale.
Silver sea cruises are not for everybody. They are however lots of fun for senior citizens. You see now the gray hair on grandpa is the silver in Silver Cruise lines. They have lots of great stuff for seniors.
