It doesn't look like a real coin to me.

Not a coin.
It is a fantasy coin-like Chinese charm.

Unless you know and specialize in these, not much over scrap value.
I don't, because I don't know. Iggorant when it comes to these.

Have no idea about the Chinese symbols on the other side though?

This is a modern replica of Chinese charms. The Chinese means "bring in wealth and treasure". Usually people use it for decoration or part of souvenir etc

Thankyou Petrus and Coaster; I had no access to this sort of information and, thankyou to
BearMan334, for starting this thread, so that I may learn as well.

I have been collecting for many more decades than I am prepared to admit, and my numismatic learning curve is still steep.
