The other side has no markings that I can see.

This weighs 2.46 grams, and has a diameter of 22 millimeters.

I cannot locate this in my Fischer, nor can I locate in under Korea or Vietnam.

@that_coin-dude, yes, you are right! I forgot that the older ones were quite different. it is a 1 Mon, c#1.1 (1626-1769), with a plain reverse, or one with the markings worn off.

I believe your coin is a Japanese, Kanei Tsuho,around AD 1768. But certainly 18th century. Commonly called a 'Tiger Tail' in view of the upper character's long tail.
