    Nice - Most likely Chinese. Here is a definition on the Swastika Symbol on your coin and a link to a website I want to share with you.
    The swastika is a very old Asian symbol. The swastika symbol in China represents the Chinese character wan (万) meaning "ten-thousand". The extended meaning of wan (万) is "all" such as "the myriad things" as used in the Dao De Jing
