Thank you all!
Sorry for posting in the wrong place...
It looks a lot like Fuzzy317's picture.
Is it an army coin or something? (Grandpa was in the army)

its not an army coin, the American Silver Eagle is a silver bullion coin/round produced by the US. It can come in bullion grade, uncirculated, proof, or reverse proof these days, with added premium at each grade. Mine is just bullion, so mine is only worth the value of 1 ounce of silver.
edit - value depends on type, grade, and quality

Not really, but there is green and red around the edges...
How to get that off?

Need pics, I think. Is the green and red on the coin itself?

DO NOT TRY TO CLEAN IT! (Yelling intentional)
The green and red may just be toning, but regardless, do not try to clean it, you will lower the value if you do.

Silver exposed to different chemicals in the air/surroundings changes color. Blue, red and green are frequent colors of toning. If the colors on your Silver Eagle are toning, it may make the coin more valuable, as many people like it. If the colors are paint, it lowers the value. Pictures will tell us a lot, and, again, DO NOT CLEAN.
