@Kushanshah Interesting, what makes you say that? I know there are square footed spades, but there are also round footed spades. "Round-footed spades
These rare coins are noted for their round handles, shoulders, and feet. They were minted in two sizes, with denominations of one jin and a half jin. On the reverses of the coins, various numerals were inscribed. These coins were used in five cities in present-day Shanxi. Some state that these coins were probably used by the states of Qin and Zhao during the early Warring States period, while others note that the coins could be from the state of Zhongshan during the 4th century BC." To be clear, given the preponderance of frauds I suspect that this is either a fraud or as you say a charm. But I would like confirmation as to why it is indeed a fraud if it is one, or a charm otherwise. I attach a photo that is associated with 'spade money's or 'bu money's from Wikimedia (which to be clear could equally be a photo of frauds/not but money)
