England has never used dollars, only pounds and pence. Up till the 1960s coins were issued in now-strange denominations such as shillings, florins, half-crowns, etc. Please look for one of those denominations on your coin and post a new question.
Please check your coin again. All 1843 US silver dollars were minted in Philadelphia so they don't carry a mint mark, and more importantly the Carson City Mint didn't open until 1870.

A knowledgeable dealer or appraiser would need to look at it in person to decide which.
In 1843, a half crown was worth two shillings and sixpence, which is equal to 30 pence.

If it has a motto on the back (the banner saying in god we trust) then its a fake. If its magnetic its fake.

Lastly, a real 1843 silver dollar weighs 26.73 grams and has a diameter of 38.1 mm. Anything other than that is a fake.
