This is so far out of the league of anything I'm ever likely to own that I can't even begin to grade it, much less value it, except $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Looks like UNC details cleaned. If it was in a no problem holder I'd say AU-58. Not sure of a value.

You can tell that this is one of the 4 proof specimens. Looks like the Bollander-8 Norweb specimen, but the hair on the Norweb is sharper. The proofs have the "2" with the scroll pointing up. The business strikes do not. The 1802 Proof Restrike Draped Bust Silver Dollar is one of the rarest of all US coins with only 4 known to exist. It is one of the rare 1801-1804 silver dollar restrikes - even rarer than the 1804 dollars (except for the unique Class 2 1804 restrike). This coin was produced sometime between the late 1830s and 1860s as a proof restrike intended for prominent collectors. Each one is worth close to $1 million! IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I'm flabbergasted that my guess was correct  i could tell this was no regular coin, but I figured (with no knowledge on this series mind you) that my guess would be far fetched! Feel free to call me Will.

Clouds.
The first thing you see is that the coins was clearly struck in a collar, so is one of te Novodel proofs. It is really hard to grade proofs from photos as you can't see the hairlines, but PF-64 is a good guess. Its a $1MM or so coin.
