Please help attribute Bechtel gold piece

This has been identified as the Carolina dollar gold design. I am posting here in hopes someone can help me authenticate it or assess usefulness of submitting.

    FredWeinberg and MrEureka,

    Thank you for the review and opinions ( and pic ). It's not what I wanted to hear, of course, but it does save me the body bag experience...and cost.
