I have a 1903 gold 5 dollar liberty coin and I was wondering what the value might be. It appears to be in very good shape. It has the liberty lady on the front and an eagle on the back.There are not any coin appraisal places in the town where I live, so any information would be helpful.

There are 2 1903 half eagles, one is just dated 1903 the other is a 1903-S, there is an S below the eagle. The S stands for the San Francisco mint. Both are priced the same but the one with out the S is scarcer. In grade very fine the value is $155 and as the grades get higher it's value in Mint state 60 is $185. The above values are about what a dealer would pay.

1903 5 Dollar Gold Coin

The US made gold dollar coins up until 1889 and they are a little smaller than a modern dime. The value of the gold would be about $45, it is a lot smaller than a full troy ounce - it has a little less than 1/20th ounce of gold. It could have a higher value depending on the date of the coin and the condition. Do not clean it in any way - it will hurt the value! Check your library for a copy of The Guide Book of US Coins - it will tell you how to estimate the condition and will give you retail prices for each date. Remember you will get less than that if you sell it.

A coin dealer will give you $150-200 depending on the condition. You will get a little more by selling it on ebay.
