My Uncle gave this to me over 60 years ago, after he came back from Korea. He said it was an old Korean coin.
It looks as though it had two holes drilled through it and possibly worn as a medallion.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I do not think this is a coin, but a temple token or good luck charm. There are several here who collect Korean coins so hang tight I am sure one or more will be able to ID it.

Tryna,thank you for your reply. After researching a bit more I tend to agree with you, it being a token or charm.

Petrus,thank you for the link. I had checked out that website previous to coming on here and didn't have any luck. I did go back today and checked again. Of all the images I have looked at I don't find anything close to having the same rectangular shape as mine.
