Hi All.
Can anyone identify this coin please. It is on Ebay at the moment so I have no weight or diameter. Thank you.

Verweis : "ZacUK" It is a token from China - very like this but with portrait the other way ...
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces41299.html Yes, a Chinese token in imitation of a late Qing, machine struck Sichuan rupee;

That said, I feel that Numista page, "Chinese token" is a veeeery generous way of describing what looks like a blatant modern counterfeit produced in an attempt to fool collectors.
