PMCoin New Member Canada 31 Posts	Posted Today 4H 18M ago Does anyone recognize where and when this coin may have been issued. I'm assuming it is Asian, but I'm not even sure what is the correct orientation. Diameter 2.4 cm. Weight 7.8 g I'm reluctant to soak this coin to get rid of the verdigris since it most likely will attack the limited detail remaining. Report this Post to the Staff

Or why do you think it may have originated there. Also, based on these pictures, it appears as though all of the marks are incuse rather than raised. Can you please confirm that is the case? If so, then I think that @scu was right in their assessment. Maybe an old British Halfpenny slick that someone has marked up?
