I don't know what kind it is i just found it its about 2 inches in diameter it looks gold..probably isn't though it has an American eagle with the 50 states in front of it with the words "treasury department" and "united staets of America" on one side and on the other it has a building that i don't know what it is and it says "San Francisco mint" and the years "1874-1937"

A coin from 1937 won't have the 50 states on it. Have it appraised at a coin shop. Someone there should tell you its real or not.

It is a medal that I think commemorates the second San Francisco mint. Sounds like one produced by the mint around 1974 or so as maybe a Bicentennial thing or just for the 100 th anniversary of the opening. It should be made of bronze and be about an 11/2 inches in diameter. You could try www.usmint.gov and see if it is still listed for sale in their medal section. Hope this points you in the right direction. I guess i should have read the other answers for mad as hell did his home work.
