You did not mention a mint mark, it is located on the reverse above the 21/2 D at the bottom of the coin. The one with out a mint mark from the Philadelphia mint is the most common and has a value of $250 in very fine grade up to $2,000 in mint state 64. The others are rarer and command more value, the S (San Francisco mint) is the rarest and commands in excess of 100 thousand dollars. Hope this helps

The mint mark (if any) and the coin’s actual condition will have an effect on its value. There are currently some listings on eBay. An MS45 is currently bidding at $145, while an MS63 is currently bidding at over $1600.
You should probably get the coin graded to get a better estimate on its actual value. When they’re in uncirculated condition, the difference between MS63 and MS64 could be several hundred dollars. And if it grades out higher than MS 64 or 65, it could be even more.
