Scrap metal - there was never a coin struck with such design. Best rule of thumb with Chinese coins - if you don't know what you are buying, don't buy it!

Price of genuine Chinese crown size silver coins have shot to new levels - hundreds of dollars easily. Unless lots of people have missed it, chances of you getting genuine coins without knowing anything is probably lower than winning a lottery.

Crude design are what this coin is, a fantasy piece.

I agree with gx with the outlook of current market status, many aren't aware the economic in China will soon over shadow the US in less than a few year. Its no laughing matter as they now own the gold exchange, and don't want to buy into any US debt, look at the currency exchange rates.
