Mystery coin - ***SOLVED***

[ModernMiner]

I was out detecting in the woods yesterday at one of my CW spots and got all excited when I dug a coin out in the middle of 190 acres. I was hoping it was going to be an 1800's US coin, but I got this instead. It was fun digging a coin out in the middle of nowhere, but what is it?

Chinese coin?
Age?

And info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
MM
