Question on silver round

[prodrigsr]

I recently bought a silver Walking Liberty round. On the back of the round it shows an eagle with its head turned . On it it has a small square that has the word "copy". What does it mean and did I get duped??

Depends.

If it's one OZ Of 999 Silver

It's worth the same as a Real Round

And If you didn't pay more then you would have Normally paid
for a 1 OZ Round

Worth $9.37 today

Which is all Real ones are Worth. You're OK

The word 'COPY' is usually placed on a coin to show compliance with the U. S. Hobby Protection Act, to show the coin is not an original. Its metalic composition (% of silver, for example) however, might still be similar to the authentic coin.
