Fantasy Coin Appraisal

1804 'Liberty' Coin (Likely Replica or Fantasy Piece)

The item is a circular metal coin, appearing to be made of a silver-toned alloy, possibly silver or a silver-plated base metal, given its somewhat muted and slightly reflective surface. The coin's obverse side is visible, featuring a central bust of a figure, likely a depiction of Liberty, in profile. Above the bust, the word "LIBERTY" is clearly legible in an arched formation. Below the bust, the date "1804" is visible, although somewhat worn and less distinct than the 'LIBERTY' inscription. Surrounding the central design is a rim adorned with a series of stars, which appear to be somewhat small and numerous, rather than the larger, fewer stars typically seen on contemporary U.S. coinage. The overall condition of the coin appears to be moderately circulated, showing signs of wear consistent with age and handling. The details are not sharply defined, suggesting that higher points of the design may have flattened over time. There are no overt scratches, dents, or significant damage visible in the provided image, but a general patina or toning consistent with an antique metallic object is present. The craftsmanship suggests a minted piece, with a consistent circular shape and raised design elements. The exact size is not discernible from the image, but it appears to be of standard coin dimensions. The faintness of some details warrants closer inspection to confirm authenticity and specific strike details. The estimated age is clearly indicated as 1804 by the date.
