"Proof" means that the coin is in very good condition, and it could be worth $100-300, depending on who you sell it to. However, if it is a copy, you may as well toss it. The coin should say "copy" on it somewhere. If not, I would still check by looking up the weight of a real Morgan dollar and then weighing yours. Only a VERY good imitation can come close to the right weight.

In the context of the 1880 Morgan silver dollar, a proof copy refers to a coin struck with special care and precision for presentation or collectors. These coins were produced using polished dies and specially prepared planchets, resulting in sharp details and a mirrored appearance. Proof copies were not intended for circulation and were often sold directly to collectors by the Mint.

What is a 1880 US silver dollar worth?

Values are: No mint mark, "O", or "S" - about $17 "CC" mint mark - $100 if worn, $200+ with only moderate wear. Note that there are Morgan dollars and Trade dollars, but they're different coins. Trade dollars all have those words on the back. Plus, 1880 trade dollars were only issued in proof, so it's almost certain you have a Morgan dollar (the classic silver dollar most people think of)
