Walking Liberty Half Dollar
How much is a 1936 Walking Liberty Half dollar worth?
I was buzzig around the internet, and one site said that one had sold for around nine thousand dollars. I'm thinking it's a mistake, but what's it really worth?
50 cents. That's the value guaranteed by law.
Though obviously some people will pay more for it...

how much is a 1937 walking liberty half dollar worth in tarnished condition?
also how much do you think a 1946 penny is worth in good condition.
You didn't mention the mintmark but according to the 2008 redbook, they start at $6 in good condition and can go as high as $1650 for a proof condition one.
1 - Take your coin to a local coin dealer (trustworthy ones can be found - shop around). It never hurts to get a second opinion. They will be able to tell you so much more by evaluation the condition of the coins. They will also know the amount minted and what it is going for in today's market.
2 - Try posting pictures on this website (there are many experts here that can help you evaluate it - there also may be people willing to buy if you are trying to sell):

3 - Repost this question and include pictures. You can use websites like http://www.photobucket.com and include the link in your question.
Good luck!
P.S. You should not clean your coins. Most coin collectors see cleaning a coin as the equivalent of stripping down antique furniture and refinishing it.
When cleaning, the surface metal of the coin is often stripped. Anything used to scrub the coin will leave scratches (even 100% pure silk will leave hairline scratches). Most cleaning products will have some type of reaction with the coin's metal and the surface metal can also be removed in this manner.
Your best bet is to leave the coins alone. Cleaning the coin will leave traces - which can be found by the knowledgeable collector - who in turn will not buy the cleaned coin. Also if you ever wanted to send your coin into a grading company, they can recognize signs of cleaning and will send your coin back in a "cleaned" slab (also called a "body bag" in the coin world) - which is usually a greatly decreased value.
If you absolutely must must must clean your coins do not use the method described above as it will react with the metal in your coin. Use 100% acetone (do not use fingernail polish remover!). It must be 100% pure because other additives will react with the coin metal. Place your coin(s) in the solution for several minutes (do not leave in for long periods of time). Rinse your coin(s) in distilled water. Next remove your coins and either pat dry with a soft cloth or allow the coin to air dry (air drying is better as you don't risk scratching the coin with the cloth). NEVER scrub your coins!
I would still advise you to leave your coins as they are. They may not be bright and shiny but that is what most collectors prefer.

1917 walking liberty half dollar?
i'm confused, i have a 1917 walking liberty half dollar, it's not mint condition, but u can read the year and see the symbols clearly. today at an antique shope i saw one in worse condition and was a 1929, for sale for 130 dollars. so i looked it up online and they are valued anywhere from 15.00 to 600. so how do i know what mine is worth?

Does anyone know the value of a '1946' walking liberty half dollar?
The coin is fully struck and in good condition.
There's a "doubled die" reverse variety that is significantly more valuable than a regular business strike. This appears on only some Philadelphia (no mint mark) coins. The mint mark, if there is one, is on the reverse below the branch, near the rim.

I have a Liberty walking 1oz silver dollar. Is it real and is it worth anything?
It has Liberty walking on the front of the coin the date on it is 1996. On the back it has an eagle and says 1oz fine silver-one dollar. I can't seem to find a listing for it on any coin appraisal sites only walking liberty half dollars.
Nice find. This type coin has been made by the US Mint every year since 1986. Assuming that yours is still in as-new condition, it's actually one of the better dates in the series.
The link below is a listing of all 1996 eagle dollars currently on eBay. As you can see, there aren't many.
