10mm diameter gold American eagle? Copy? Real? Help me please!

Hello. A friend of mine brought me a very very small coin she found in the bottom shelf of her room. It was a very small, about 10mm diameter coin. I would say golden.

It is exactly like this coin: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces23163.html

The only difference, aside from its size, is that this one on the reverse only says "United States of America" but no facial value. Also, the lettering is centered as follows:

United States
  of America

I do not include a picture because, it is very very small and wouldn't be able to get a good picture, and anyway it is so much like the link I've provided.

Please help me.
Thanks!

Copy. all 10mm "Gold eagles" are miniature replicas. If you're lucky, maybe it's at least made of gold.

From what I've seen, most of them are just gold plated.

It is not that I got the idea it was authentic but that I have no idea of what it is...

Oh.  Heres a good example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gold-is-still-going-up-One-1-1907-St-Gaudens-coin-Not-scrap-/130802245305?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e746bdeb9  

It's a 10mm pure gold replica. Not to say yours is a pure gold replica, it could always be plated.

I think it varies, those little 1cm replicas were either plated or really low quality gold (around 9 carat gold)

The "Mini Gulden" coins comes in all kinds of variety. Some of them are Gold plated, some 9 Carat Gold and some are 10/12 Carat.
It's very difficult to say which one you have unless you stop by a jeweller.

Thanks everybody  

I do adore to collect mini coins, rather than buying the expensive "real" ones. Mini coins are cheap and very collectable.
At this moment I do have of those mini 20 dollar eagles. They're gold plated with a value of +_ 5 euro a piece.

May someone want to swap mini's just let me know.
