Looks to be at least a solid EF with a nice look. Retail value around $15+.

That is a nice Columbian for the grade, but it is also quite common as commemorative coins go. Believe it or not, the unsold Columbian half dollars were turned out into circulation after the World's fair was over, which expains why they common in the circulated grades.
Rest in Peace

Mid EF for grade. Nice even tone, except for the spot on the obverse.

Not a terribly valuable coin, but one that has immense historical value.
