    Cant tell you that from typing about it.
    It's like I have a Ford F150 and it's blue there is a windshield and 4 tires. It looks like theres a bumper and some headlights. How much is it worth?

    See you cant to that.
    We'd need pictures as the coin's quality means alot. It could be a fake or it could be a very nice quality coin worth tons.
    soooo
    Picture please.
    Thanks and welcome to CT forum

    Can't recall the mint issuing these. Must be a private concern......

    This piece is clearly not from 1776; the style is far too modern. It's most likely one of a huge number of medals produced privately for the Bicentennial in 1976.

    Chances are that it's worth only a couple of bucks or so.

    Fifty stars on the flag, can't be too old! Doubtful there is any value, as stated there were so many private medals made.

    Don't think they have any particular value. As others have written, those were privately issued medals, probably made in 1976 ...

    I have the same coin and have been looking around the internet for a while... I was worried that it might be fake?

    Not fake, just a privately minted medal likely for the bicentennial.

    Have you read the other posts in this thread.. It's not an official Mint coin. Just a cheap commemorative. You can find these in junk coin bins at flea markets and coinshops for $1.00

    Welcome to the forum. As stated several times in this thread, some sort of privately made medal most likely for the Bicentennial.
