Can you help me identify this coin I discovered? My uncle was in the military and stationed in the Far East after WWII and had it in his things.

The coin measures 38 mm, edges have reeds, weight is 17.12 gm, and it does attach to a magnet.
At the bottom of the obverse is has the dates 1644-1661.

Any help is much appreciated!!

@7mo, first welcome to CCF. Second, it looks like you have a modern Chinese tourist token there. This issue commentates Emperor Shunzi, but there are a whole bunch of them for various emperors.
