One hundred dollars
-50-300 usd
@ turn of the century give or take a decade
100-1000 usd
It's just gold plated -- no added value
10-100 usd
Single action or double action? Exactly how is it marked? sales@countrygunsmith.net
Not gold and not plated. It's made of manganese brass. (And yes, it's worth something: it's worth one dollar.)
Any plated coins are only worth their melt value. Fortunately, as of early 2010 that comes to about $14 retail, or about $10 wholesale, for a 1921 Morgan dollar.
It's not gold plated the Brass in the coin gives it that color and it's not worth more than a dollar
Impossible to answer without a detailed description of all markings and features.
