I found another chinese coin (or token) that was identical to the last two coins I posted, which were identified as fake charm tokens. This one though is somewhat larger then the two previous ones, so I wanted to be absolutely sure.

The first two photos are of the coin, And the third photo is a size comparision between (From left to right) the coin, The previously identified charm token, and a penny for size reference. If it is real, would it be possible to ask for its value? Thanks in advance.

Yep, it's a fake. See the strange, bubbly background on the top pic? The smaller one has the bubbliness on the back, too. They've tried to reproduce the porous, sandy appearance of a genuinely cast coin - but this would have been machine-struck.
