The date is 1911. However this appears to be a reproduction, It's probably silver plated.

Thank you for your prompt reply, Sir. May I know the rarity of the original coin, Sir, it's weight and size? This one, I will return too.

While I know nothing about coins of China, comparing this coin to the other recent post, I notice this one lacks the fineness of detail present in the other example. Notably, the denticles are quite uneven, and the dragon drops out of the design in several spots. The letters seem less refined, and overall it feels more modern.
