How much ia a 1991 silver dollar worth?

The 1991 Silver Dollar was issued as part of the United States Mint's series of commemorative coins honoring the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas. The coin was struck in both proof and uncirculated finishes, and contains 90% silver and 10% copper.

The Silver Eagle struck in 1991, contains one ounce of silver. The current spot price of silver per ounce is $23.43. If you were to melt the coin for the value of the silver alone, you could get about $19.85.

Because this coin is a special commemorative coin, the value of the coin is usually worth more than the value of the silver it contains. Silver Eagles generally sell for around $35-$45.

As with all coins, the actual value of a 1991 Silver Dollar will depend on a number of factors, including its condition, rarity, and market demand.
