If the coin does have a mintmark it would be under the "DO" in dollar on the back of the coin.
I want to sell my 1899 silver dollar peace coin. what is a fair value to get for this coin so I am no cheated?Well, if you write in THIS part, the computer puts your question into the "already answered" pile- I caught it by chance. I would suggest you find a coin shop that has been in business for some time- NOT one of the "we buy gold and silver" companies that have popped up everywhere. The value of your coin is going to be based on EXACTLY what coin you have (being made in different mints can make a BIG difference) and the condition/ wear of the coin. Resist the urge to polish it up. A US 1899 silver dollar is worth $27.68 for the SILVER as of this morning (6-16-11) in addition to any collector's value. Please understand there is no way a dealer can pay the full value of any coin- they have to resell it and make a profit.MorePlease also note that your coin can't be a Peace dollar. They were minted from 1921 to 1935. All silver dollars minted from 1878 to November 1921 are Morgan dollars, named for their designer George T. Morgan.
On the "heads" side of US coinage there is a date, that tells you when the coin was made.
The mint letter on a coin, if any, is located right under the date.
This is a coin issued by the U.S. for the Kingdom of Hawaii. The 1847 issue was in the denomination of one cent. This coin is worth between $400-2000. The value will change depending on the wear on your coin. A poorly preserved coin, with many details missing will be in the $400-500 range, while an extremely well-preserved coin, with sharp details and luster may be worth a few thousand. Chances are you fall in the middle, around the $700-1000 range. I would recommend taking this coin to a coin dealer for an appraisal. This is a very nice find, and something most collectors would love to have in their collection.
Not enough information. Please post a new question with the coin's denomination.

The best choice would be to take it to a coin shop and have it appraised.
Pictures of a specific coin are difficult to come by. Usually you should be able to find one on eBay, but the picture is withdrawn after the coin is sold. See the link below.
If the coin does have a mintmark it would be under the "DO" in dollar on the back of the coin.
Find a coin show in your area, take the coin, and get offers from several different dealers.

You can find coin book holders ether at Barns and Nobel, that is where I got mine, or you can try Amazon.com.
I would check the completed items at an online auction website.
Generally the coin would be above the bone in the ground, unless the bone was buried and then someone buried a coin on top of it.
