Not sure exactly what the attribution of this coin is. It looks to me like it would fit around David Hartill #16.234. I think the inscription is Yuan Feng Tong Bao (clockwise). This would put the coin at around 1080. Any help in its attribution is much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Not sure that this is a Chinese coin. It appears to be very similar to a Japanese Nagasaki trade coin. Take a look at this link and compare to the examples shown:-

Perhaps another CCF member (more experienced than I) would care to offer an opinion.
