According to Red Book an 1867 Liberty Silver dollar by condition:

VG8: $230
F12: $300
VF20: $450
EF40: $600
AU50: $1100
MS60: $2000
MS63: $4000
PF63: $3750

Mintage of only: 46,900

1 - Take your coin to a local coin dealer (trustworthy ones can be found - shop around). It never hurts to get a second opinion. They will be able to tell you so much more by evaluation the condition of the coins. They will also know the amount minted and what it is going for in today's market.

2 - Try posting pictures on this website (there are many experts here that can help you evaluate it - there also may be people willing to buy if you are trying to sell):

3 - Repost this question and include pictures. You can use websites like http://www.photobucket.com and include the link in your question.

Good luck!

P.S. You should not clean your coins. Most coin collectors see cleaning a coin as the equivalent of stripping down antique furniture and refinishing it.

When cleaning, the surface metal of the coin is often stripped. Anything used to scrub the coin will leave scratches (even 100% pure silk will leave hairline scratches). Most cleaning products will have some type of reaction with the coin's metal and the surface metal can also be removed in this manner.

Your best bet is to leave the coins alone. Cleaning the coin will leave traces - which can be found by the knowledgeable collector - who in turn will not buy the cleaned coin. Also if you ever wanted to send your coin into a grading company, they can recognize signs of cleaning and will send your coin back in a "cleaned" slab (also called a "body bag" in the coin world) - which is usually a greatly decreased value.

If you absolutely must must must clean your coins do not use the method described above as it will react with the metal in your coin. Use 100% acetone (do not use fingernail polish remover!). It must be 100% pure because other additives will react with the coin metal. Place your coin(s) in the solution for several minutes (do not leave in for long periods of time). Rinse your coin(s) in distilled water. Next remove your coins and either pat dry with a soft cloth or allow the coin to air dry (air drying is better as you don't risk scratching the coin with the cloth). NEVER scrub your coins!

I would still advise you to leave your coins as they are. They may not be bright and shiny but that is what most collectors prefer.

The 1867 in low mint state MS-60 $1,450 and in MS-64 $6,850. I doubt it would grade higher than that and on close examination may not be in mint state, but was cleaned or dipped. You don't find high grade Seated Dollars in just any ones hands that has no idea what it is worth. One waring there are a lot of fakes out there coming in from China. The above values are about what a dealer would pay.

The 1974-S interior the blue p.c.. is a clad silver coin. It has .3167 oz..of organic silver. Mintage became right into a million,900,156 with isn't that great. the undertaking with the Ike money now could be that there are few human beings amassing the sequence a minimum of now. quicker or later human beings will discover that's not that user-friendly to place a series mutually and expenditures will circulate up. My advice carry directly to it for a mutually as. They do sell for $7-$12. sellers pay much less.

It could be worth anywhere from $2000 to $12,000 depending on the actual grade. Uncirculated or Mint State (MS) coins are graded on a scale of 60 to 70 with 60 being the lower end. I would take it to a coin dealer so he could give you a more accurate grade. Given the value I would consider getting it certified.

depends on where it was minted.
I believe, under the eagle, there would be a code like CC, PA, or whatever.

I don't know a lot about when CC started minting, but, apparently CC is the highest value
