Can any one give me any history or age on the Samuel Holppi Red Lodge Montana/ Good for 10c in trade token, and this Chinese coin (looks like it was a hammered )?
Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
and Happy Hunting
 

The coin was cast in a mold for multiple coins, not hammered. It dates from 1821-1850 and was minted under emperor Hsuan Tsung at the Board of Works mint. Most likely dropped by a Chinese Immigrant in circa 1870.
