This question comes up fairly often and is a common misunderstanding. US $1 coins made up till 1935 aren't called "eagles" and they don't contain 1 oz of silver. They were ordinary circulation coins made for use in daily commerce. While they do contain silver, it's not as much - about 3/4 of a troy ounce.

"Silver eagles" are modern (1986 and later) coins sold by the Mint as investment pieces, not for spending; their value is linked to the current price of silver and the "$1" value is purely artificial.

The coin you have is often called a Peace dollar because it was minted to celebrate the end of WWI. Its value when minted was in fact exactly $1 because silver was much cheaper and its price was controlled. Today it has value not only for its silver content but for its interest to collectors.

What is the value of a 1928 silver dollar money clip?

It is worth whatever melt is. The silver dollar is damaged and they never use rare dates (the 1928 peace dollar is rare, it is likely a 1928-S coin which is quite common) and so it would be worth about $20 for the coin. However, there is the question on whether the money clip itself is silver, usually the clip would be marked "STERLING" or 925 if it is silver. If the clip is silver, you have added value with whatever the weight of the silver clip is.
