    That is called a Morgan Dollar. Most coins have E Pluribus Unum ;)

    Yes your coin is worth more then One Dollar. It is 90% silver which gives it a melt value of around $21. I can't tell for sure from the pictures, but it looks like the coin may have a CC mint mark. If so that makes it worth a lot more. How much more would depend on condition and grade.

    How and where did you obtain this coin? CC coins in UNC condition are quite valuable.

    The 85CC is a good date. You may know this, but because it is not in a protective holder, don't rub it or slide it on a surface, or touch the front or back with your bare fingers.

    @Mayela. First thing you need to do is verify that it's an authentic coin. If it's real you have a relatively expensive coin. Here's the PCGS price guide for the 1885 CC Morgan Dollar:

    The value of your coin depends on the grade. If it were my coin I would definitely send it in for authentication and grade. (PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG are the major grading services.
    Sorry, I didn't list the grades over the prices. The 5th through 10th columns are for MS coins. Examples:
    MS 62 MS 65
    $700 $1,050

    I’m sorry, not that I don’t believe you but a TIP? Of a multi-hundred dollar coin? Where does he work because I want to apply there
