Jackieeas New Member United Kingdom 2 Posts	Posted 12/09/2015 4:05 pm I've had this coin for years now, I believe I picked it up at a boot sale one time, but I found it recently and I'm very interested to find out more about it. Thanks in advance to anybody who can help! Report this Post to the Staff

China churns out so many of these things for tourists that it's hard to keep track. We have a few members who are fluent in Mandarin--they can translate the reverse for you, but I bet it's something like "Wealth and happiness will be yours." Report this Post to the Staff

I'm trying to decide what to do with it, I'm considering polishing it up and just keeping it to look at, but I wouldn't want to ruin it by cleaning it if it's anything more than unusual.

These are not necessarily meant to fool anyone, they are more intended to be a keepsake, and I would think that is what the original owners would expect them to be. Report this Post to the Staff
