What makes you think its a fake? May help us look a little closer and compare. Also, The weight and diameter of the coin would be great!

I love those Designs! I picked up one for my OFEC set

I'v got no hard evidence.. I heard that when the denticles on a chinese coin are 'badly' done it can be a sign that its a fake? and as you can see from the top right hand side of the top picture they seem a bit off, I'm not sure but I would like to know if its authentic or not before I sell it

It appears to me its a year 2 Korea 1/4 Yang made from Copper Nickle.
Year 2 is the most common by far, the other ones are Very spendy in VF condition. The year 2 is $2 in that cond, where the others are 350+ in similar condition.
I'd bet that yours is real
