Hi Everyone, I am living in China and bought 6 coins at an antique market. I have been able to identify all but one thanks to other pictures on your site. Can I get some help with this last one. The size of the coin is 1.5 inches (3.8 cm). Since it doesn't have either the yuan character or the shi character for 10 I guess it could be a charm and not a coin. Thank you in advance for your help.

The left picture says indeed : Li-yung T'ung-pao (Wu San-kuel) or Li Yong tong bao , what is very much the same.
date 1674-1678
right picture :
right symbol= one (official chinese)
left symbol = candereen (fen)
(data from krause)
