Help what is this one?

[mtalbot_ca]

Good day,

Has I was taking my morning coffe, I stumbled on this site that seems usefull when trying to interpret chinese coins, that looks like the one you have.

I'll keep searching for the exact one.

[uthminsta]

[mtalbot_ca]

[henrysmedford]

Got some Ikes and some small dollars !

[TJMatt]

Great score!!! Keep up the good work.
