My wife and I found this coin that we believe to be an ancient Chinese coin. I don't believe the coin to be made out of cast iron. If I wanted to, I could easily bend the coin in half. Other than the photos, this is all the information I have. Any information in the type, validation or evaluation on the coin would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I know nothing about ancient Chinese coins but I'm certain this is a modern replica, sorry.
I collect and deal in ancient Roman coin. In case you're looking for affordable ancient coins or need any help with the coins you already have send me a message.

Thanks cro321. I was assuming this would be the case.

Agreed, replica of 1 Cash - Tongzhi, from the Fuzhou (Fujian province) mint.

Btw: the right hand picture is rotated 180°.
