Any information on this counterfeit dollar?

A friend of mine who has an antique shop purchased this along with some foreign stuff and asked me about it.
Obviously it's a counterfeit. I assume it was never meant to be passed off as real. Any idea who made it?
Was it a commemorative piece? I don't know...

As soon as our credit rating drops below that of lower slobovia we should give that a try!

In other words, check back in about a month?

This is more along the lines of what I was thinking.
I seem to recall a set of "replica" pieces... all of them were the super scarce rarities of U.S. coinage.
They maybe they were issued by some medalic company rather than just a cheap chinese copy...
