"It looks like you have a 2001 Official State Goat. It also look like it is a proof like due to the reeded edge that I see. Our proof medallions would say "Alaska Mint 1 oz .999 fine silver" plus a serial number (the edge of our proofs are smooth). The reverse on the medallion you have pictured is a old die design for the State of Alaska State Seal. The new dies do not say "1 troy oz. .999 fine silver", you can view them on the New Official State Medallions on our web site.
Hope this helps you.

Awesome! It's great to hear its real! So I actually way right!! The proofs have the lettered edges and the regular strikes are reeded.. I thought I had read that somewhere but couldn't find it again. I definitely didn't know they had an old design though.. It seems odd they would have a die for a silver medallion that didn't say the purity.. But maybe thats why they changed it.
Anyways, congrats, I bet that makes you feel a lot better about it!
