Coin was given to me. Still in plastic wrapper. Does anyone know what it is or what it's worth?

Krause lists UNC as $4.50 and BU as $5.50

22.5g, 0.72 Silver, 0.5209 ASW
Mintage: 27,182,000

Spot price puts it @ $6.63

It's a beautiful coin in hand. I'd hang onto it even though it's worth melt

Looks like this is a type 1, with the rings more up.

I'll take a pic of mine soon and show you the difference.

If you can tell, the center ring on the Olympic rings is lower of the left, higher on the right.

Strange color coing for being silver. Must be the other .28 composition.

Thanks for the help!
