✅ SOLVED Chinese everywhere?

[MrMikeJackie]

Hello all. Hope everyone is doing well. Was able able to get out today and headed to the beach. Looks like someone was “repenting” and threw a bunch of these coins into the ocean. Any idea? Can’t seem to find another like it on the web. Thank you in advance, Mike.

Not Japanese. It’s Chinese writing for sure.

 

[unclemac]

4+ hours of trying to find this coin on the net and my eyes are bleeding. Tomorrow’s another day. Good night.

My Taiwanese wife says they are from China but it is not money. So it could be some kind of Chinese gaming token.

That’s a good lead, thank you. Is she able to translate anything on the coin? Thanks

 

[MrMikeJackie]

So far today I found one picture of a similar coin(link doesn’t help) and using google translate was able to come up with some words. Coin had something to do with the “romance of the three kingdoms” or something like that. Still can’t find this coin anywhere.

 

[unclemac]

search token not coin...it is most likely for gaming

They are a set of 5 collectible coins of the 5 Tiger generals in the Chinese classic novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. As for value I saw a set of all 5 coins being sold online for 32 RMB.
