Online Appraisal
D. Dear Mark, As you suggested, I am sending on behalf of my seven-year-old grandson, Ilan, two coins (front and back) which he would like an evaluation. I will forward your response to him. Thank you for your time.

The 1964 half is 90% silver. As of today, Jan. 24, that coin has $37 of silver in it. Now, dealers are paying considerably less than that because of market risk and the need for profit. So you would probably get $20 if you sold it.
The Sacagawea dollar is worth face value. I spend these. There is a Cheerios variety with crosshatched tail feathers that is most valuable in uncirculated condition. You have no evidence yours came from such an origin; the feathers don't look like they have that feature, and it has circulation wear already.

Most inquiries we get are about circulated coins made after 1971, and/or coins where people mistake post-mint damage and wear for "errors". You can expect us to affirm these are face value. We ask that before you write and submit such questions, to PLEASE first read through our existing postings and our "what it's worth" primers.
