I'm going out on a limb but looks Chinese so you might google Chinese coins. At a quick glance I found some that look close but not exact. Good luck !
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the help. How weird is it that they haven't changed the coin since 1959?

We hadn't either on cent coins until just recently. Same with nickles and quarters. Our dimes retain the same look since 1946.
