The first U.S. dollar was issued in 1794 so there can't be a 1776 silver dollar.

If you have a large (38.1 mm) coin with a picture of President Eisenhower on the front, it's a dual date (1776-1976) Bicentennial commemorative. (After all, Ike was born in 1890 so there's no way his picture could be on a real 1776 coin!) If you have a Bicentennial coin please see the related question.

The other possibility is that you have a privately-minted medal, token, or fantasy piece. Unless it contains silver, these have little collector value.

The first US silver dollar was struck in 1794 not 1776 but if you mean a dual date 1776-1976 Eisenhower dollar the coin has face value only.
