A 1877 dollar is a very interesting dollar. Its called a trade dollar because they were made to be used with trade to China. Ocationally you will find them with Chinese marking in them and they are very well collected by collectors. Sadly trade dollars contain tons and tons of fakes. I would try bringing your trade dolar to a dealer to verify that it is legit. Coin values depend on a couple of values. Mintage of this coin is over 3 million, so its a pretty common coin. With no Chinese markings or any defects this coin has a range of beinging worth anywhere from 110-several thousand dollars depnding on its grade. VG-$110 F-$140 EF- $160 AU- $300 Mint state coins can be worth hundreds or thousands more from grade to grade. If you think your trade dollar is a Mint state coin i would get it verified by a dealer.
