      I am not a coin expert but these look like Chinese, Ch'ing Dynasty (1559 to 1912)?

      Now the bad part... to me this looks like a reproduction coin? It doesn't seem to be enough wear to be as old as is?

      Additionally even if it is real these coins don't really hold a lot of value. Still a cool find though.

      My mom was Japanese and she give me some Samurai are a coins any Chinese coin that was 1000 years old. The Chinese coin we're on eBay for like $16!

      And the Japanese coins that she had carried all these centuries weren't worth very much at all either..
