Question
hello my name is shanna turner and i was wondering if you could tell me how much a 1921 silver dollar would be worth if i sold it. Any answers you might be able to help me with i would sure appreciate it thanks so much  shanna turner

Answer
HI Shanna,
The MINT produced 2 types of silver dollars in 1921, one is known as a Morgan Dollar, the other is a Peace Dollar. The Peace dollar has a more modern design with the eagle on the back of the coin in profile.  The Morgan dollar has the eagle with it's wings spread.  Both coins depict Liberty on the front, but again, different artist interpretations.
A 1921 Morgan dollar is quite common and in used condition trades for about $15 whereby the Peace dollar is scarcer and in used condition starts at about $100 and goes up from there.
I hope this helped
Regards
