How much is this coin worth?
I don’t know much about coins and I’ll do my best to describe it to you.

It’s a 1886 Morgan Silver Dollar. It’s cased and it says PCGS on the very top and below it it says MS64.

Then below that there is a number which is 7166.64/4408753

Right below that number is the barcode. Is 7166 the value or something?

Best answer:

Well, it helps that you did a very good job of describing what you have. PCGS is a very reputable third party coin grader and MS-64 is Choice (better than normal) Uncirculated.

Here is a listing of 1886 silver dollars that grade MS-64 presently for sale on eBay. It looks like yours should retail in the – range:

The 7166.64/4408753 is the serial number for the coin in the PCGS data base, nothing more.

Anyone else reading this should make note: If you have a coin like this, give us all the info you have on it. You will get a much better answer. This person did so, and I appreciate that. It makes preparing an answer much easier.
