Certainly priceless since there was no Denver until 1858 and no US Mint in Denver until 1879. It had to be left by a space traveler from another dimension. (Or perhaps it was recently struck as a novelty item and has no value.)
Look at the coin again. The first coin struck at the Denver Mint was in 1906 What you have is a Mint medallion that was included in coin sets for many years. They were struck on cent blanks. The date is the year that the Treasury Department was established.
There was no Denver, or even a Colorado, in 1789.
It's not a coin it's a mint medal. Its out of a souvenir set from the Denver mint. The sets are only sold at the gift shoppes at the Denver & Philadelphia mints.
The US Department of the Treasury
The little "D" on the coin means it came from the Denver Mint. The Denver Mint is in Colorado.
The Department of the Treasury
It's not a coin. It's a token piece that's struck on a cent blank and included with mint sets. There's one with a D for Denver and another with P for Philadelphia. The year 1789 refers to the date that the Department of the Treasury was established. These pieces do not have the year of mintage on them they are not particularly collectible. They're worth at most 1 cent.
