What is the value of a 1879 420 grain 900 fine trade dollar?

All 1879 trade dollars were proofs and the entire trade dollar series is heavily counterfeited. Most likely, your coin is a counterfeit, but should be examined by someone who knows a lot about coins (good places to start are coin shops and jewelry shops) if you believe it to be genuine, but most likely it is a counterfeit. If genuine it could be worth hundreds to thousands of dollars.


What is the value of a 1999 us silver eagle dollar?

This should be a large coin (40 mm) with the words "1 oz" and "999 Fine" on the back. It was minted for sale to collectors and investors. The $1 denomination is artificial. Because this coin's value is based on its silver content you'll need to check your newspaper's business section for the current price of silver and add a few percent. If you have a small (26.5 mm) coin with an eagle landing on the moon shown on the reverse, your coin is an Anthony dollar, not a silver eagle dollar. Please see the Related Question for details.

What is the value of a 1939 one ounce fine silver walking liberty silver dollar?

If it the date is 1939 and it says "HALF DOLLAR" on the back then this is not a one-ounce bullion coin; they were first issued in 1986. It's an actual coin that was used in ordinary commerce. Its value is mostly determined by the current price of silver which changes every day. Check a site like kitco or CNNMoney for the current spot price of silver, then multiply by 0.36 for an approximate worth.


What is the value of a eisenhower 1971 dollar?

1971 Eisenhower Dollar; with no mint mark, extra fine condition-$1.50, uncirculated-$3.50 with D mint mark, extra fine condition-$1.50, uncirculated-$2.50 with S mint mark, uncirculated-$6.50, proof-$7.00 I assume you're referring to an Eisenhower dollar. If so, it's not silver. Check the edge - it's made of the same copper/nickel "sandwich" metal as dimes and quarters. So unless your coin is a proof coin in its original package, it's only worth face value. Added 6/19/10 The value of the coin, of course, depends on the value of silver at the time of sale/determination. The 1971-S (out of the San Francisco Mint), is 40% silver, as opposed to the aforementioned "copper/nickel 'sandwich'," which means the value is much higher than those from other mints.

An 1875 Trade dollar 420 grains .900 Fine was a Silver Dollar minted in the US in the 19th century.
