Today my roommate brought home a 1906 Silver Dollar, that looks worn and old. It has the Statue of Liberty on the front, says 'Liberty' and 'Ellis Island Gateway to America' on the front, with the date 1906, and on the back it says 'United States of America' and "GIVE ME YOUR TIRED YOUR POOR YOUR HUDDLED MASSES YEARNING TO BREATHE FREE". I searched for this on Ebay and couldn't find anything remotely like it. I searched on Google and found a commemorative coin made in 1986 that looks almost just like this, except that the coin from 1986 (which was a special commemorative coin) has an 'S' stamped on the front, where this one that I have has a 'P' stamped on it. I read somewhere on the internet that the U.S. mint did not make Silver dollars from 1905 through 1921. Does anyone know if what I have is really from 1906?

It's 1986. The S mintmark was on proof coins and the P mintmark was on uncirculated coins. A circulated coin would only be worth the value of the silver content (which is about $8.25)
Here is a link to a P mintmark coin presently for sale on eBay:

Democrats will stop the spending when they are voted out of office, and that day can not come soon enough. As was stated in the answers here, yes employers do give paid vacations to their employees, at their expense, it is part of their employment package. Not by a directive of the Federal government. The Federal government has no business telling a private business that they have to pay for someones vacation. Paid vacations in the past have been a reward for doing a good job. Not a right. The youth of this nation are really getting to be in a sad state of mind. They think that they should be given every thing they want and given it right now, rather than working for it and having a real appreciation for what they have achieved. Not realizing just how much hard work goes into getting something. If mom and dad pay for everything they have no real appreciation for it.

There is no such thing as a U.S. mint 1906 dollar of any kind. All dollars were stopped in 1904 and no commemorative dollars were made. you must have a medal or token of some kind but I would need to see it. You can try a coin dealer or two, or maybe there is a coin club in your area and the members would be glad to help. Best I can do with out pics.

See a coin collectors guide. There are some available at the bookstore. They show you every US coin that was ever produced and used as currency.

After searching Google I have determined that the coin is a counterfeit. Don't feel bad, I got one too.
