This a 1oz silver bullion coin. It is worth around $40 because of the silver content. It is worth the price of silver per ounce.

Indian Head cents were made from 1859 to 1909. There are several varieties: > 1859 : made from copper-nickel, with a wreath on the reverse > 1860 to mid-1864 : copper-nickel, with a shield and modified wreath on the reverse > mid-1864 to mid-1909 : bronze, with a shield and wreath Indian head cents were minted every year during that time. Nearly all were made in Philadelphia and do not carry a mint mark. In 1908 and 1909 small numbers of Indian head cents were struck at San Francisco. They were the first cents struck there even though that Mint had been in operation for decades, and are the only US cents to ever have the mint mark on the back (below the wreath).

What is the value of an 1851 Indian head silver dollar?
These coins are well-known fakes made long after 1851. The Indian Head design is taken from the famous Indian Head cent that wasn't issued until 1859. The wreath design on the back is copied from a gold dollar issued at roughly the same time. In addition, the font used for "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" post-dates 1851 and no US coin ever had the country's name on both sides. Finally, a simple specific gravity or drop test will show that the coins are made of a base metal rather than silver. There were two types of genuine dollar coins struck that year. Neither one carries an Indian head design. The large silver dollar carries a Seated Liberty image, while the small gold dollar carries a Liberty Head image.
