Assuming it's a large (about 40 mm) US silver dollar with an eagle on the back:

Values will vary widely, depending on the coin's exact condition.

In Very Good condition, with heavy wear yet all major designs defined, it's worth about $1,000

In Extra Fine condition, with just light visible wear, it's worth about $7,000

A rarely seen uncirculated example will be worth at least $30,000

Cleaning, damage, corrosion, and other problems will significantly reduce the values listed.

But if your coin is small (26.5 mm) and the "Liberty" you're referring to is the Statue of Liberty on the back of the coin, it's a modern Presidential dollar. 1797 is the year that George Washington's term ended, not the year the coin was minted. That's 2007 and is incused on the coin's edge.
