This isn't any standard US coin and I doubt if many other countries use either of these symbols. Can you tell us what other writing is on the coin - perhaps it says ".999 Silver"? It is a privately minted silver round. Its value is based only on the silver it contains -- about $18.00 as of mid-2008
Not with that date. The Buffalo Nickel was minted from 1913 through 1938.
This is not a US Mint issue coin it's a novelty coin of some type. It could have value if it's made from silver. Look for the marking of .999 fine silver on the coin. If you find it, it's made of silver and does have some value.
The coin you have described sounds like a novelity coin and has no value other than the materials it is made from.
Buffalo Academy of the Sacred Heart was created in 1877.
If you think about it for a minute, how many pennies or nickels have you seen that are the size of a silver dollar? What you have isn't a coin and it isn't from 1877. It's a modern novelty item that can be bought in stores and used in a display or possibly as decoration. For example, I have a "Lincoln cent" tray on my desk that's copper in color but is about 120mm in diameter. It's absolutely not a penny, it's for paper clips or coffee cups.

Indian head nickels were minted from 1913 to 1938. For unknown reasons 1877 is a commonly-used date for replica and fantasy pieces.
No general-circulation silver dollars were minted from 1874 to 1877. If you have a coin that says TRADE DOLLAR on the back, please see the Related Question.
The only silver-dollar sized coins struck in 1877 were Trade Dollars. These coins were made of the same 90% silver alloy as standard silver dollars, but were slightly larger and heavier. They were stuck specifically for use in international trade. A few thousand gold $1coins were also struck in 1877. Their alloy was 90% gold but it included a very small amount of silver and copper for hardness.
