Hello and welcome. 
"7 mace and 2 candareens" is the weight, using Imperial weight standards then in use, of a silver dollar.
You should be aware that large numbers of counterfeit Chinese silver dollars have been produced in China in recent decades. The street markets both in China and in the West are flooded with them. If you found your coin in a street market, or from some other non-coin-expert source, then I'm afraid it's highly likely that your coin is a fake, too.

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
