That's a mighty fine guess, but it is incorrect!

No, I paid more than that for it.



Oh wait, you mean the face value.

No, it is not 25 cent face value.

I'm lost so will continue to refine the date as it seems like we are still somewhere between 1850 and 1950. Was this coin made in the 20th Century?
