Thanks conder101.

Here is a more detailed look..as best I can.
Game counter? I'm willing to accept that fact..if I can confirm it which is probably nearly impossible.

Here's the no-scroll reverse from the Capped Bust quarters of 1831-38. The Seated Liberty reverses are similar, but the denomination is given as QUAR. DOL., and it looks like your denomination begins with 2 and ends with C.

Admittedly, not a perfect match, but here's the reverse of the Liberty Head quarter eagles from 1840-1907. See what I mean about the difference?

The first thing that jumped out at me was the border of large beads, totally unlike anything used on US coins. (The 1793 wreath and cap cents did use a beaded border but they were small beads.)

And if it was supposed to be a copy of a gold coin it has the wrong style eagle with down swept wings instead of up.
