paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/24/2018 02:30 am It is an octagonal token - notice that there is no denomination. These were made as souvenirs or by jewelers, and might contain no gold at all or a small amount.

thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 04/24/2018 12:21 pm You have a token prorat. The date is fictitious. Real 1857 fractionals have Liberty heads. There is no denomination. It's very hard to put a price on them. http://m.PCGScoinfacts.com/Category/Detail/1659 "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."
