What is the value of a 1877 us dollar coin?

There were no standard silver dollars minted that year. If the coin's date is in fact 1877 it could be one of the following:

> A "Trade dollar" minted for use in international commerce. Trade dollars have that phrase on the back of the coin. If it has a "CC" mint mark it's worth around $500; any other mint mark (or none at all) is worth about $90.

> It's a counterfeit. There has been a flood of fakes over the last few decades, some very good and many others with "impossible" dates or designs that stand out as forgeries.

Either way, you'll need to have your coin evaluated in person by a dealer who is experienced in 19th-century U.S. coins.

Is there a connection between the Colossus of Rhodes and the Statue of Liberty?

These statues where made at different times, places, and for different reasons.

It is likely that there is some sort of connection due to secret and ancient societies

(eg one of the societies from the early 1600s: the Illuminati), but here are the facts.

Statue of Liberty

Creator: Frederic Auguste Bartholdi

Where made: Republic of France

When presented to the US: 1886 (Hundredth year anniversary of the US independence)

Colossus of Rhodes

Creator: Chares of Lindos

Where made: City of Rhodes

When finished: N/A

The Colossus of Rhodes was never finished due to a flaw in the work which made Chares kill himself. The statue was destroyed in an earthquake in 226 BC.

The similarities are obvious. Maybe the Statue of Liberty is an ancient French God from a secret Religion and maybe a remake of the Colossus marking that America may be doomed to be manipulated by the Religion. But is it really likely for a secret society to stay operational from 282 BC to the 1800s or maybe modern times?
