I hate to reveal such a high degree of ignorance, but I'm cleaning house and came across this and have no idea what it is. Is it a token or a novelty? The reverse has the Buffalo and the year 2001. Nowhere does it mention anything about silver content, even though it sure looks like silver. It weighs .8 ounce when removed from the plastic sleeve.

Thanks in advance...and please don't make fun of me...!

What does the rest of I look like.

Looking for 1oz .999 silver. Check the reverse and the edge.
It you find it .. then check the weight.

If it doesn't say it is silver .. could just be a novelity

As I mentioned in my original post, nowhere on it (not front, nor back nor edge) does it say what the weight is nor does it proclaim "silver" anywhere. The side not shown has the buffalo, the date (2001 - under the buffalo), United States of America, In God We Trust and E. Pluribus Unum. That's ALL. As I also mentioned, it weighs .8/oz, or 24 grams, if you prefer.
