    A $5 Liberty with the motto. That is most common type.

    1886-S $5 a All.jpg

    Although, on second thought a St. Guadens $20 gold. Those are common too, but will cost you over $2,200 given the melt value. I hope you bought a certified piece.

    1922 $20 Gold All.jpg

    I’ll make it a little easier…

    1) It’s not American
    2) It was not struck in the last two centuries
    3) It was struck by a country that no longer exists (and also has not existed in the last two centuries)

    So my guess of a Fanum is still in the mix :D but I won't try to guess beyond that as there are several hundred types of Fanums lol
