Best Answer

Your coin is an ordinary Walking Liberty half dollar that's had an extra layer of gold added by a private company that sold it as an "instant collectible". Unfortunately that makes it an altered coin worth only its metal value, with no added premium to a coin collector.

The gold layer is so thin that it would cost more to remove it than its value as precious metal. You may be able to find a niche collector who would be interested in the coin as a curiosity but beyond that it has little or no market value beyond its silver content, about 1/3 the current price of an ounce of raw silver.

What is the Value of 1892 Gold Silver Dollar?

There's no such thing as a gold silver dollar. Dollar coins were made of gold (1854-1889) or silver (1794-1935) but the 2 metals were never mixed. Most likely you have a silver dollar coin that was plated. Unfortunately being plated reduces its value to that of the raw metal in it, about $10 as of 06/2009.
