Please take a couple of seconds to look at your pocket change! ALL U.S. coins have the front and back oriented 180º from each other so this is nothing unusual.
The value of your coin depends on how worn it is and whether there is a mint mark letter above the ONE in ONE DOLLAR on the back.

As of today the value is about $17.00 it's a bullion coin and the value is just for the silver. FYI it's called a Silver Eagle or American Silver Eagle coin
If it's a 1979 Susan B. Anthony dollar it's not silver and I'm going out on a limb to say that the eagle isn't upside-down either. ALL U.S. coins minted since the 19th century have the front and back oriented 180º to each other so that the sides point oppositely when a coin is flipped side to side like the page of a book.
Eisenhower is on the front of the coin, the eagle is on the reverse that's why it's called a Eisenhower dollar. The 1977 coin has no silver regardless of mintmark and is likely only face value especially if it's from a bank or found in circulation.
The 1924 silver dollar is called a Peace dollar because it says Peace on the side with the eagle. It is worth about $25 for the silver alone. If the condition is better, it is worth more.
