Hello. I wondered if anyone might have any insight on this Chinese (I assume) coin. I had a friend in the 1980s whose parents were missionaries in the Philippines, if I remember correctly. He brought it back to me after a visit. I don't remember any other background info. It's about 4 inches in diameter. The light coloring around the horse has a slight green tint. Thanks for any input!

@out, first welcome to CCF. Second, I have at least temporarily moved your thread to a more appropriate subforum to get you some answers. Based on the size and horse image, I'm thinking that this is better termed a charm than a coin, but it will be interesting to see what others think.

The Chinese characters on the coin is "#26395;#20113;". It means "watching the clouds".
This coin is about 100 years old. Not offical minted.
