sounds like a Caalifornia gold token 1849 Indian #4 with 11 stars. Bill Mackner
A denomination is needed, post new question.
$50.00
This is a modern replica that unfortunately has little or no value, the fact there is a bear on the reverse also means it's very common.
A time machine to go back to 1849. Bring condoms and hookers. And a pickaxe. To kill the hookers with.
They came with the California Gold Rush of 1849 and primarily shipped their money (gold) back to their families in China. Many stayed and settled down in California.
A 1852 California Token with an Indian on the front with 13 stars around it and a wreath with California Gold and a star in the middle is a 1/2 dollar gold piece; however, there are lots of fakes about. Take it to your local jeweler to test to see what type of gold ie 14k, 18k or 24k. Also, you can send the coin in for authenticity to PCGS, ANACS. Usually the coin should have a denomination such as 25c, 50c, or $1. They can also have 1/4 dollar, 1/2 dollar, or $1. 1852 13 Star Indian Head with California Gold and no denomination is a replica token.
The name 49ers harkens back to the gold rush in the mid 1800's when people were migrating west in search of gold. The Gold Rush, as it was called, began in 1849 so often the people heading out that way were called 49ers. The team took it's name from those people, and it is often thought that their gold helmets are a reflection of the Gold Rush itself.
It is worth only its metal value.
