What denomination Coin ?Dime ,Quarter ,Half,or Dollar ?
What kind of condition is it in ?
Go to the library or a coin club and look it up on an up to date Red book .(A Guide Book of United States Coins .

A lot of silver coins were minted in 1888 and no one can help you, with out knowing what country it was from and what denomination it was.

Since I do not know what type of 1888 coin you have, here is a site for you to do some research.

I have sold silver coins successfully on Ebay.
Check Ebay to see how much that coin is going for, and the condition etc......
You WILL find the value there.

Their is usually a coin retail trader buyer of old coins in the phone book for your city. . You would have to know more--mint marks---quality---usually the library has those books. If he took it to a coin shop he got $5-10 reguardless of the worth as a collectable. You need to know what kind of coin--silver dollar--gold coin---dime--what was it??? No rush on the answer as the coin is gone forever.
