This coin is not real. The Seated Liberty silver $ was the only US $ (other than the Liberty Head gold $) being minted in 1851

Not a copy of any real design so just a fantasy token.

Don't know if anyone has mentioned but with this coin, and the Trade dollar you posted, it still may be worth while to check to see if they are silver at least. You may have $45 or so in melt?

This is an entirely made-up coin. None of these designs ever appeared on an actual US coin (the Indian Head had different words around it). I've also seen an equally bogus "George Washington dollar" somewhere.

You have a CF-S$1-1851-0001 there. Counterfeit/fake/fantasy as others have said, but here's some more information about it:

I've never seen one of those that was actually silver. It is probably one of the oldest "modern" fakes around. I've been running into that thing since 1989.
