Welcome chrissy! Can you post clearer pics and tell how you acquired it. It is most likely fake, unfortunately, these Continental Currency dollars range in $10000+ range. Weight and diameter would help too.

Thanks,

Apollo

Even from that blurry picture (no offense to the OP,) it looks like a cast copy. I'm just getting a feeling from the look of it.

Almost certainly, one of the many cast copies that exhist. Genuine specimens are made from pewter. Clear pictures of obverse and reverse needed to determine.
