to CoinTalk capriglone3. I've moved your post to the US Coins forum, where the people knowledgeable about your question are more likely to see it.
Howdy capriglione3 - Welcome to the Forum !! The odds are strongly in favor of the coin being a replica, but without pictures there's not much we can do to help. Here is a pic of what a genuine example looks like - Continental Dollar
A furthur look Thank you for your reply I look furthur on the coin and on the edge of the coin i could see a small "c" and a "o" but could not make out the other two letters. Would a person that had copyed this coin put the word "copy" on the edge of the coin where the normal ridges on a regular dime or quarter would be or is it something else, also the silver on it looks like it be chipping of on the edges and it looks like brown metal underneath like maybe copper or brass. So what do you think I wish i could send you a pic. but I don't have a scanner.
