Look on the back of the coin to see if there's a small mint mark letter below the eagle. It may be blank or there may be an O.

Numismedia lists the following approximate retail values as of 02/2015:

No mint mark (Philadelphia):

Very worn condition - $40

Moderately worn - $60

Slightly worn - $108

Almost no wear - $490

Uncirculated - $900 to $17,190 depending on quality

"O" mint mark (New Orleans):

Very worn - $35

Moderately worn - $61

Slightly worn - $110

Almost no wear - $554

Uncirculated - $1,170 to $12,810

DISCLAIMER: The retail values quoted are the best available as of the date shown, but may vary significantly due to changes in the precious metals market. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a coin will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
