How valuable is a 1960 silver dollar?

The United States did not produce any dollar coins in 1960. The US did produce a silver half dollar in 1960, but unless it is in extraordinarily good Uncirculated condition (MS-65 or better), it is worth little more than its silver value (0.3607 troy ounces of silver - about US$6.70 as of January 13, 2010). Canada produced a silver dollar in 1960, but again unless it is in extraordinarily good Uncirculated condition, it is worth little more than its silver value (0.600 troy ounces of silver - about US$11.15 as of January 13, 2010).
