One dollar silver coins AV:" LIBERTY" and "IN GOD WE TRUST"- in the field, year: 1816 ?!?!?!?! RV: "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. 1oz fine silver one dollar." Thanks

A silver round is like a silver bullion bar, except it's round. They often include designs from real coins on one side. I saw the pic you posted, and I'm not sure what it is.
It appears to me that it is a counterfeit "Fantasy" American Silver Eagle since the appearance is very mushy!
Ok, thanks again! It is a new entri in my colections, in facts I intristing roman coins, but I find this u.s coins and medals on the gypsi jeweler how have a lot of american and south american coins and I don't now if is a good bargain or not. I spent for this coins and medals 60$. Sorry for my english!
Corbel, If you purchased the "Fantasy" American Silver Eagle from this Gypsy Jeweler, then beware that this Silver (if it is in fact Silver) piece is not real and he/she may be selling you a load of counterfeited (not real or not authentic) coins, medals, Silver Eagles and Silver Rounds.
Intrysting.... but the coins are made in silver! and this gypsy jeveler don't have capacity to made this coins . Probably are manufacturetid in another place.
Many of the Countefeits are produced in China...especially in Shanghai which is well know for the counterfeiting that has been going on there for probably hundreds of years! There are many other areas of the world where counterfeits are produced as well. How do you know that the "Fantasy" American Silver Eagle is made of Silver? Real American Silver Eagles are .9999 Fine Silver! The piece that you have may contain Silver but probably contains far, far less than true American Silver Eagles.
Vadeidel,welcome aboard.They're definitely medals,I'm afraid.They're an interesting series of American satire-related medals,nonetheless. Aidan.
maybe it's medal or token. http://www.silverprice.com/ in upper left corner there is something simillar to "American Flag". What is it?
