Is an 1891 one dollar silver with upside down back worth anything?

Answer 1

Flipped Printing? What do you mean? Please ask another question with more exact details about your coin. All U.S. coins have the reverse side rotated 180 degrees from the obverse (front) side. The only cases that are valuable occur when the design is rotated a different amount (or not rotated at all). These are considered to be error coins and their value depends on the extent by which the rotation differs from 180 degrees.

Answer 2

Please check your coin versus other U.S. coins. The front and back should be pointing in opposite directions when the coin is flipped like the page of a book. That's normal - ALL U.S. coins minted since the 19th century have the front and back oriented 180º to each other.

Many other countries (Canada, UK, EU) use what's called "medal rotation" where both sides point the same direction when a coin is flipped side to side like the page of a book.

If the top of the eagle and the top of Miss Liberty's head are both pointing the same direction, then you should have the coin examined in person by an expert such as a dealer who handles error coins.

Answer 3

An 1891 one dollar silver certificate with an upside-down back could be considered a printing error or a novelty item for collectors. The value would ultimately depend on the condition of the bill and the demand from collectors. It is recommended to have it appraised by a professional to determine its exact worth.
