Special coin, is it collectible or valuable?

I asked earlier but I will ask again now that I have a photo to prove it.

I have a special dollar coin with the native American on it. It is without any yellow color to it, almost like it is silver or aluminum. Can anyone tell me if it is valuable?

    If you're talking about the coin at the bottom right - that coin has had something done to it outside of the US Mint. Either it was plated or it was exposed to chemicals. Collectors consider it damage. There is no value above face value. The other two Sacagawea dollars are normal D- mint circulation strikes.

    United States dollar coin that has been minted every year since 2000, although not released for general circulation from 2002 through 2008 and again from 2012 onward due to its general unpopularity with the public and low business demand for the coin.

    While the coin has been minted repeatedly, not in the silver - it is likely that someone has treated it with mercury or plated it to give it that color. Not a valid collectable.
