    Here's a page with some information:

    http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/FAQ/brasher.html

    Basically, six genuine coins are known, and millions of copies have been made, so the odds are that you have a copy (with little or no value). If you'd like us to tell you more, you can post photos here; it's also useful to weigh the coin accurately, using a jeweler's scale.

    It's almost certainly a modern replica, copy or counterfeit. Welcome.

    Agreed with the above; it's likely not genuine, but show us some pictures and tell us where you got it!

    That is a very crude copy made to sell to tourists at museums and historical sites.

    Approximately $14+ per piece.

    Slightly above melt value for silver

    Those morgans would be considered circulated worth around $20 each.

    The first one has an S mint mark. If that is the 1900 date coin, it may be upwards of $20 to $30. The second one, 1921 was a very common date and is very worn, so somewhere below 20 or at $20. Keep in mind that is retail and if you were to sell to a store, they will have to make a profit and will offer less.
