I bought this coin at an auction in South Dakota. It appears to have a Morgan dollar image on one side with the year 1776 on the bottom. The other side of the coin has the name "PRL Hardenbergh Co" and a 612 phone number. It has a hole drilled in the top (keychain?). I am curious if this has any value at all. Thanks for help!

Kris

Can this please be moved to the Identification: Unidentified coins, medals and tokens section?
Thanks.

Value is going to be fairly minimal since it is an advertising token and not an actual Morgan silver dollar. There is a remote possibility that it is composed of silver but that would require either a Specific Gravity or acid test to determine, most likely it is a base white metal.

I moved your post to the Identification forum. Hopefully someone can offer additional information on this.

P.R.L. Hardenbergh is an automobile parts company. Probably just an advertising medal of some sorts.

edit: ``was`` an automobile parts company, it doesn't exist anymore.

Also, the dollar looks like it is made by casting, and made of a base metal. A nice piece, though
