It's dated 1876. Don't know anything about it, though.

It kinda appears like it was issued at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition or a similar fair

Can you determine the diameter? Looks like it could be a so-called dollar associated with the U.S. Centennial Expo held in Philadelphia in 1876. I don't see this one listed in the Hibler-Kappen catalog.

@Commems should take a look. He knows the HK series pretty well.

@bobby, I will of course defer to @commems, but I think I've got a match here on the so-called dollar website:

http://www.so-calleddollar.com/scd/...irst-in-war/

It is listed as SH 2-76.

Good job, @Spence. I think that would be it.
