The term "American Eagle" is used only for modern bullion coins. Your 1942 coin is likely a Walking Liberty half dollar, but with out a denomination, I don't know. Post new question.
AnswerPlease check your pocket change! ALL coins in the U.S. have their reverse sides oriented upside down with respect to the front, so what you have is an ordinary circulation coin, not an error. A lot of late-issue Walkers were saved, so they remain common among collectors. Regardless of condition or mint mark your coin is worth about $10.50, mostly due to its silver content.
It's worth about a dollar just for the silver in it.
Just for its silver content alone it would be worth about $10.40.
Walking Liberty Half Dollars will never have a "W" mintmark. Instead, that is the designer's signature. If your Walking Liberty Half Dollar has a mintmark, it will be on the left side of the coin near the branch that the Eagle is perched upon. 1942 was a common year of Walking Liberty half dollars and they are worth about $12.75 for their silver content, unless the coin is in mint state, in which case the coin might be worth more to a collector.

Still no 1942 silver dollar US coin. If you mean a 1942 US half dollar it's worth $7.00-$9.00 in circulated condition.
Sorry, No US one dollar coins dated 1942. Last year issued 1935

1942 is a very common date Mercury dime most are worth about a dollar just for the silver. But it could be worth something since that was around/during WWII.

It's a very common date. At present, it's worth around $10.
