This coin sold this morning on ebay for ~$27. The "other guy" won, but not before I ran his bill up a bit. I can't find it in the 2012 RedBook, or in my google search. The pictures are the best I could salvage from the listing. No size was given. It looked to be silver, had some wear, 1776 and 1876 on Liberty Bell side, and Independance Hall on the reverse. What is it?

I would not have bid 27 cents based on those lousy pics

It is definitely not a coin so you will not find it in the RedBook. Best match I could find would be an HK-27-29 US Centennial Exposition So-Called Dollar. I have doubts though because some of the details seem to be a bit off

Thanks for the link, biokemist6. I'm glad now that I didn't win it. I really shouldn't bid anything on a coin until I at least know what it is. Whoever outbid me must have thought it was a serious collectable. Lesson learned.
