    Hello to all forum members
    Want to identify the coin above,
    I looked around the Internet without a conclusion,
    I found similar coins, but a little different to my IMG_0533[1]_1024x764.jpg IMG_0535[1]_1024x764.jpg
    Thank you for your help

    It's a modern machine-made "coin" commemorating Emperor Mu Zong who ruled during the years 1862-1874 of the Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty.

    The four Chinese characters read tong zhi tong bao.

    Authentic coins from the tong zhi reign of Emperor Mu Zong were cast in bronze and are both plentiful and inexpensive.

    Commemorative coins such as yours are made in very large quantities and sold inexpensively as souvenir pieces.
