Bucket list item just ticked off - First Chinese coin

[Geelongirl]

So happy to have found my first Chinese coin. Found this coin not far from where I found a 1858 Holloways token middle of this year. Would have loved to do more detecting here but was too scared of the snakes. Will go back next year when it is not snake season

Is there anyone here that could help me date this coin please

Congrats on getting a cool bucket list item.

Another member used coinquest.com to date his Chinese coin.

Thank you mbasko. I looked up calgarycoin.com and after much looking I have come to the conclusion that my coin is from the Emporor Sheng Tsu 1662-1722. Tried to upload a photo but file was too big.
