Who is the president on the silver-dollar?

There is no president on the only silver dollars intended for circulation. All the dollar coins containing silver for general circulation had an image of Liberty and were last minted in 1935. However, the Eisenhower dollar coin minted from 1971-1978 are the same size as the earlier silver dollar coins, but they ones intended for circulation contain absolutely no silver and should not be called silver dollars. These dollar coins minted from 1971-1978 contain a portrait of Dwight Eisenhower on them.


Is there a ten dollar silver coin in circulation?

No. The US has never circulated a silver coin with a denomination higher than a dollar. In the late 19th century a $100 silver coin called a "union" was proposed and actually designed but was never minted. All higher-denomination coins were made of gold, and they were withdrawn from circulation way back in 1933. The last 90% silver coins were minted in 1964, and 40% silver half dollars were minted up till 1969 ('70 in collectors' sets). Since then all circulating dimes, quarters, and half dollars have been made out copper-nickel.

What is an 1884 Trade Silver Dollar?

Trade dollars were US coins made in silver to trade in the far East. However, your coin, if it is an 1884 Trade Dollar, it is counterfeit. There were only 10 examples minted that year, all of them are known. So, when it comes to value, the only value your coin can have is if it is minted in real silver, if it is minted in real silver, it is worth however much silver is in your coin. If it is silver plated lead, or silver plated copper, or non-silver alloy like "nickel silver" your coin is essentially worthless.

1985 liberty silver?

No such coin exists. The last silver coins minted for general circulation were the 90% silver coins last minted in 1964 and the 40% half dollars last minted in 1970. Silver Eagle bullion coins weren't minted until 1986, silver proof sets weren't introduced until 1992. Whatever your coin is, (and you didn't specify the denomination so it is impossible to tell what your coin might be) if it is a US coin, it is not silver.
