Nice find, some of those coins date way way back. I found one last week that dates from 1735 to 1795. Its my oldest coin so far.

Very cool getting an old Chinese coin here in the states. I have managed two which are probably my two oldest coins dug. They are pretty old.

There were hundreds of Chinese here in oregon when the railroads were built.
Old post but noticed the coin was not identified.
