I bought this coin at an antique shop yesterday for a dollar. It looks silver and very old, but it's way too worn to get any info off. Can anyone let me know what country this coin is from and how old it could be??

Possible "flowing hair BUST DIME", need to make out what few letters there are on Obverse.
 
Might be a well worn old head Victoria Shilling?
 
Looks like an older head Queen Victoria.

I'll have to look at it with a magnifying glass to see if I can make out any writing
 
I am almost positive it is an 1880's one shilling coin after looking at it for a while and doing research. Not bad for $1!
