new orleans collectible coin?

i have a coin dated 1971, it has a helmet with "new orleans saints" stamped on the front.it is about the size of a silver collar and made of aluminum. it also has "vs minnesota vikings". on the back it says" new orleans magazine, tells it like it is" and "each issue a winner". is this worth anything? is it worth say (pinky in corner of mouth) "ONE MILLION DOLLARS"?!?!?!

It sounds like an old Mardi Gras doubloon. It actually might be worth some money because old doubloons are highly collectible.
