    You don't have to start a new post for every coin. Simply reply to a current post of yours, ask a new question about another coin and post the pic. We'll get you an answer fast.

    You've got your pictures mixed up, these don't go together. This is a Szechuan reverse with some other obverse.

    This is not a coin but a medal, but it does have a dragon on it, a two-headed one:

    British World War II Victory Medal

    England was in bad financial shape so they struck their medals in copper-nickel.
    Canada struck theirs in 80% silver.
    This one is from Canada.
    I found it in a California coin dealer's "junk box" in the 1960's.

    The dragon's oriental head is Japan, the other head is Germany.
    As usual, Italy gets no respect.
