I have not been able to identify the face of this coin in my book or online research. I see the flags on the back on many coin, but the portrait is what I can't find. I am hoping (and am pretty certain) that someone here will be able to help me. The coin is quite worn, but any information you could give me would help. It was with 10 and 20 Cash coins. It is about the size of an Ike dollar. I'd want to call it Yuan, but in my book they are listed as silver, and this is obviously not. Thanks!!

It's a 50 cash coin from Yunnan province. NGC database page.

The coin comes in "brass" (KM/Y 478), as well as a "copper" variant (KM/Y 478a).

I don't know why I didn't come here first. I got a new giant coin book for Christmas, but this one isn't in there. Thank you so much.
