Nope. Trade dollars were first made in 1873. Whether this is a complete fake or just an altered date I can't say for sure, but I'm leaning toward complete fake. Either way, it's worthless.
Rest in Peace

There is such a (fantasy) coin. It's made by the Shanghai mint and as barryg replied, completely worthless.

You're showing one, so of course there is. It's not a US Mint issued coin so you probably want to avoid it.

The coins weren't minted in 1817

ssssso, let's see...

We have...
A coin designed to mimic an official United States coin that was made with an impossible date.

Well that settles it. What we have here is a piece of Numismatic Art. As such it is collectable and has a value and should be slabbed by TPG.
