"Currently Marshall Islands coins are valued at or below their face value when bought and sold in the US coin market. The basis for their currency is the US dollar. This was only based on the US dollar and is not redeemable in the US. The coins are rarely redeemable at face value even on the islands. These coins were intended for collectors, not for widespread use as currency."

None. It is a copper-nickel alloy. The Marshall Islands have issued commemoratives for hundreds of events, none of which have to do with their own history. Most commemorate US figures or accomplishments, because that is where they find a market for these instant collectables. As near as I can tell, all the $5 coins are copper nickel, $10 coins are brass, and the $20 and $50 coins are silver (0.5 and1.0 troy ounces).

The monetary system if the Marshall Islands is the U.S. dollar. The Marshall Islands, however, do mint coins for collectors that are not intended for circulation and are not associated with the USA dollar and have done so since 1986. They are sold to collectors as a source of income for the islands.

No, it is not authorized by the US mint and therefore is not genuine US legal tender.

Whatever you can get. The coins are NOT legal tender in the US and have no silver in them, also they have no numismatic value. But this stuff does sell on EBay.

What is the Five dollar space shuttle discovery coin worth?

Unfortunately, these privately minted Marshall Islands coins are essentially worthless. They are not silver, so they cannot even be sold for any metal value. You can't even redeem them at a bank in the Marshall Islands -- they won't honor them. At best, you might get a couple dollars as a novelty item. Wish I had better news for you,
