I'm at a lost to identify this coin. I'm hopping one of you pros out there can help me out with it. I see the numbers '339' in the inscription, but that doesn't mean anything to me and of course the "Hammer & Sickle" indicates some sort of alliance with the old Soviet Union. Many thanks --- rich

Actually, the numbers you see are 1933 (right to left). Looks to be Chinese Soviet Republic KM508.

Yep, it's a replica, sorry. It claims to be a Chinese Soviet 20 cents 1933, but such coins are supposed to be made of silver, not brass.
