What is a 1776 - 1976 bicentennial coin worth?

The 1776-1976 Bicentennial coins include the Bicentennial quarter, half dollar, and dollar. Their values vary depending on the type, condition, and rarity. On average, the Bicentennial quarter in Good condition may be worth a few cents to a few dollars, while a Brilliant Uncirculated specimen can be worth around $5 to $10.

The Bicentennial half dollar values also range from a few cents to tens of dollars, depending on the condition and mint mark. A well-preserved Mint State (MS) 1976-S Bicentennial half dollar can be worth around $50, with special varieties or errors commanding higher premiums.

The Bicentennial dollar coins come in different types, including the silver dollar (40% silver) and the Eisenhower dollar (copper-nickel clad). Again, the values vary based on condition and rarity, with some Mint State specimens potentially fetching hundreds or even thousands of dollars, especially for rare varieties or errors.

If you have any of these Bicentennial coins, it's recommended to consult a reputable numismatic expert or coin dealer for an accurate appraisal, especially if you believe they might have significant collector's value.
