I seen this coin and saw that it is in prestine condition and also in the condition this coin is in sells for$3,800.00 and up I only gave $20 for it when I got home and looked at the markings I seen 71MG instead of 1 ounce and also my coin has .999 PURE SILVER CLAD I've been looking and searching for anything about it but can't find anything at all about it So if anyone knows what I have and can tell me the value it would be greatly appreciated

It is silver plated aka clad and I believe that 7q mg gives you the thickness of the plating or possibly the weight of it. Either way a novelty item, I have one as well that I bought in a large lot of genuine proof ASE.

It's some kind of worthless base metal plated with Twenty Cents worth of silver. I'm sorry but you got played. Any chance of getting your money back? Or you could just chalk it up as a learning experience.

To be clear ...

Did you think you were buying a $3800.00 coin for $20.00

As the saying goes ... if it sounds to good to be true, it probably isn't.

At that point check it out before you buy.

Yes, Jay. You own a novelty "coin". A clad reproduction of sorts.
Not worth $20 anyway.
