We are interested in learning how much it might be worth and important descriptive information. Anyone willing to help? We will appreciate it! Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

The means it was minted in New Orleans. It is rather common date so I would say that the coin is worth its silver value (currently about $25.) The jewelry rims often times damage coins lowering their value, but I don't think that it matters much in your case since the coin does not have much value other than its silver content.
