Need Help Identifying 1983 Philadelphia Phillies .999 Silver One Troy Oz. Round/Coin

I have been a precious metal bug for almost a decade, but just recently turned my childhood hobby of sports card/memorabilia collecting into coin collecting and was wondering if someone could help me identify this as I cannot find it anywhere of the web, eBay, mint sites, or dealer sites. I came across a Philadelphia Phillies 100th Anniversary Coin from 1883-1983 that is labeled "Pure Silver .999 One Troy Ounce". Poor timing, considering I was just at the coin show at the beginning of the month, but I cannot determine what the heck this thing is. It weighs 31.1 grams, has a gold/bronze tone to it with silver either fading through or from coloring, and no mint mark, just the number 267 on the side. Please see all the attached pictures. The coin has been in a coin case, does not appear to be in mint state (although I am very new to this), and I have no idea if it is worth anything more than its melt value...I do think it is a real troy oz of silver though despite its weird labeling. There are copyright and restricted signs next to the P and Phillies. I have not been able to find a similar looking, minted, or labeled coin anywhere. Please take a look at the pictures and let me know if you can identify the mint or something to help me figure this out. Thank you.

Never use a plastic bag for that, use a glasses cleaning cloth.

 

Thank you for the advice on the handling and care

 

First, welcome to the neighborhood!

This is a medal...not a coin. There is no reason to believe that it isn't pure silver with a gilt or gold wash on it. Your photo of the edge is too blurry to make anything out. Obviously, it was struck by a private mint, but without a hallmark, it is virtually impossible to determine which one unless you get lucky and find someone who has the same medal accompanied by the COA. It's possible that it was struck by the Franklin Mint, but that is just a guess. It was probably a limited production judging by the "267" stamped on the edge, but it could have been of 500, 1000 or even more. Have you tried contacting the Phillies organization to see if anyone on their staff is familiar with it?

Did you ever find out what this was worth-I have one identical to it?
