Medal Germany Brandenburg Prussia 1802 and 1803
Ok, Dinah. You are one of those people who like to streeettttch our CoinQuest expertise. After quite a search, the piece in our picture may, or may not, be your coin. It has 99% of the accouterments, but that last 1 percent may do us in.
I believe you have a medal, not a coin, from the time of Napoleon. I also believe that it is quite valuable, probably retailing for $100 to $200 US dollars.
The piece in the picture is for sale at 200 euros at this link. You can also see a similar, but not exact match at this link.
Medals and tokens are not legal tender coins and they do not have a strong collector following like coins do. This, ultimately, means their values are lower because the demand is lower. Your piece might be so scarce that it commands high value.
