Dollar Values

Dollar coins are commonly collected, particularly the Morgan and Peace Dollars. Morgan and Peace dollars are popular with collectors due to their low expense and classic designs. Well-worn Silver dollars are also saved as junk Silver for their Precious Metal content, though older series are worth a lot even in low condition.

McKinley Gold Dollars – 1916 – 1917

On September 6, 1901, President William McKinley was visiting the Pan-American Exposition, being held in Buffalo, New York.

The Lafayette Dollar – 1900

In 1775, the British had the “greatest army and navy on the face of the Earth.” No thinking person would have believed that the American colonies, which had a ragtag army and no navy, would force the complete and total surrender of British forces at Yorktown just six years later. How did this happen?

US Prisoner of War Museum – 1994

The U. S. Prisoner of War Museum Silver Dollar was one of three similar coins that were authorized by the US Mint and struck and sold in 1994. The other two were the 1994 Vietnam Veterans Memorial Silver Dollar and the Women in Military Service Memorial Silver Dollar.
