Best Answer

In general a copy of a coin (usually called by the euphemism "replica") is worth only as much as the metal it's made from. Most replica coins are made of base metal with a coating of silver or gold, or maybe just brass, so in general the answer is "not much".

Some replicas are made of silver or gold and sold as bullion coins, so those copies do have whatever value those precious metals bring on the open market. If your replica doesn't indicate that it's made of one of those metals, it's probably not worth more than a few dollars.
