1884 Morgan Silver Dollar - Collectors advice would be greatly appreciated!

[Nra-Life-Member]

This coin has been in the family for a very long time. Looking for some advice. I am trading in Silver to a vendor and can't decide if this coin has more value as melted silver or as the 1884 Morgan coin.

I don't know how to grade coins - but as a novice I see lots of hair lines and eagle feathers which I believe helps with value.

Is this something worth holding onto for another 100 years or sell it with other silver.

Thanks for the advice in advance!
