Can you submit an obverse and reverse picture? That may be helpful.

If its made of copper, I think I have one of those tokens too...It came with a set of proof Lincoln Cents issued around 1999...I don't think its worth much but I've kept it anyway...
Is yours copper colored and about the size of a silver dollar?

thank you both,i dont see where i can post a pic unless the coin is listed unless i do it in a email to you. i noticed this am that it has the # 5030 stamped in the top rim.it looks like a silver piece to me.its prob not valuable but i love the 'hunt' on the mystery of this..thanks again and if i find a way to post the pic i will.

I think it's a commemorative of sorts made of copper. I've seen these sell on ebay but not for much, I think around 5 bucks. Do a search on ebay in the penny catagory and I bet you will find a couple listed. GL

Marion,
You can't on ebay, go to coinhood.com and you can upload a pic there and maybe someone there will know something about it and I'll look at it too.

Sounds like a token of some sort. at coinspace.com there are some token collectors who might give you a hand in identifying it.

If it's that large it might even be a medal of some sort.
