Face Value
Nothing because while it is a commemorative medal it does not seem to commemorate anything.

So, everyone seems to be missing the point of this coin. It is a bicentennial comemorative coin of the American Revolution, not Independence Day. In March of 1773, a secret meeting of the Virginia House of Burgesses established a Commitee of Correspondence, whose membership included Sam Adams, Patrick henry, Thomas Jefferson and Richard Henry Lee. They were charged with informing the populace at large of British actions against American liberties and to mobilze resistance against these incursions. By early 1774, all but 2 of the colonies had joined the movement.
All US bicentennial coinage has the dual date 1776-1976 not 1973, none of the bicentennial half dollar coins made for general circulation contain any silver or are worth more than face value. Only Proof and collectors coins sold from the US Mint are worth more.

It's a common bicentennial dollar, worth one dollar. If it has a mint mark of S, then it's worth a little more.
There were no official commemorative cents struck for the Bicentennial. If you have a coin with extra markings on it, it's been altered by a private company and is worth 1¢ If you have an otherwise ordinary looking 1976 cent, it's also only worth 1¢

The US Mint did not produce this coin and it is probably the product of one of the private mints. Its actual value would be limited to the worth of the metals it contains.
