Hello, my name is Ricky and I no absolutely NOTHING about coins and/or collecting. I have a coin that's been passed down and I actually haven't a clue to what it actually is nor the value of such. It has a date of 1873 and it IS a United States coin and I have attached 2 pictures so one could see and hopefully help me out.

Thanks for any and all help

Ricky

Appears to be a token with no value.

I agree looks like a token. Kinda similar to the reverse of us Seated coinage.

I don't believe that is an actual coin, having a date and the same design on both sides.
