If it is a genuine U.S. silver dollar, about 40 mm in diameter with the head of Miss Liberty on one side and a spread-winged eagle on the other, its value could range anywhere from $1400 in very worn condition to $75,000 with almost no wear.

But before you pay off your mortgage, fewer than 7800 genuine 1797 silver dollars were struck and not many are unaccounted for. The market has been flooded with fake dollars and dollar-size coins over the last couple of decades to the point that there are more counterfeits than genuine coins. In addition there are legitimate "replica" dollars that have the word "COPY" somewhere in small letters, as required by law. Counterfeits of course won't, LOL!

If you have a small coin slightly larger than a quarter, gold in color, with a portrait of a U.S. president on the front it's not gold OR silver, and it's not from 1797 - it's one of the new presidential dollars and it's made of brass.
