Hi there - this coin was included in a lot with other copper liberty coins.  It seems unusual in that it is dated - 1878 - no denomination.  Has anyone seen one before?  Any info would be appreciated!

It's not a coin.  Just a copy of a Morgan Dollar (1878-1904, 1921) made in copper. Worth its weight in copper.

Yes, I know - all the copper liberty rounds are copies of the Morgan design - I've just never seen one that is dated…..

I see. You called it a coin and posted in the coin forum rather than Exonumia so I assumed you thought is was a coin.
