1853 cent is $16.00 in good grade
and up to $175.00 in uncirculated grade.
This is from the 2007 Red Book, it should give you a good range depending on your coins condition.

1853 was one of the last years of large cents. They were discontinued in 1857. As with all coins, the condition is key. In an average "nice" condition, fine in coin speak, your coin is probably worth around $20. Better condition means more money, but it takes experience to accurately grade it. Find a coin collector friend to grade it for you, or get a copy of the Red Book and follow their grading descriptions unbiasedly, (people always want to grade their own coins high). Also, any damage to a coin dramatically affects the value, like major scratches, corrosion, or a hole.

Take it to your local coin shop for an idea of what it is worth then list it Ebay for twice the amount.

I lost one that was on a money clip. I paid $ 180.00 for mine but it depends on where it was minted and the condition.
