Looks like a fake coin. Maybe a toy coin.
Not a US Minted coin at all.
Where does it say Germany?

 

to the right of the date. on heads side

 

ok now I see it. Since your coin shows stars I thought it was continuous.
But once again. This is not a US Minted Coin.
I don't know why it would say Germany.

 

yeah. it has two countries on it and no decimal.. so i really don't know.

i have seen some somewhere while looking online with the same heads image but not luck finding out about this coin its self

 

I truly believe it's some kind of cast fantasy piece.
Maybe made for a piece of jewelry.

 

Yes. It's a piece of jewelry.
Here is an example I found on the internet

 

thanks for having a look.

my first thoughts were some kind of token, or something todo with the war. but the dates dont line up

 

oh aye it is the same. what did you search for?

 

Here is another picture

 

I Googled "1923 Indian Head germany coin"

 

thanks for the help @paddyman98

 

Interestingly jody's has "United States of America" arched over the eagle, while that one has gibberish. Perhaps they had trouble with the other one?

 

Oh yea.. I just noticed! Haha

 

I hope this kind of play money wasn’t made in Germany, because it doesn’t seem to be a quality product. And the eagle looks like a rooster ;-)

 

You will note that in the first two that paddyman showed they are from two different obv dies. The third piece is from yet another obv die.

And the OP piece is from yet ANOTHER obv die.

 

I thought of you when I saw this item. I should of tagged you then!
