Its actually a modern replica of a Chinese cash coin. You can tell by the background "dots" that are not on originals. You can ID it by this chart. Looks like Tao-Kwong.

OK not to be argumentative but i see some dot's on the chart that you showed? what is the composition of the coin, brass aluminum and weight if known?

I have a couple modern replicas myself and I'd say yours is one.

I don't disagree that it is a replica its that everytime i hunt this park /beach i find the weirdest things.
this is the only time that i have never found a silver ring and I have not ever found a gold ring in this park.

It is the most trash free park i have ever seen I can swing for 15 minutes and not get one hit very few tabs or other junk!!! during the summer it is packed with people even today there were time trials for dragon boat racer's going on and they were very nice and offered me a chance to run on a canoe to see how well i could paddle there course!!!! No way that looked like way to much effort for Me!!!!


I averaged 3 coins for every other find which is normal for this park!!!!!

Starting may first vancouver strarted up their $3:00 parking fee Again so i had to walk in hiking about 1.25 miles to save $3.00!!!

The chart is modern replicas. I just use it for identification purposes.
The real ones do not have dots. They are brass.
