Found this at an old park. Also found some american coins from the late 1800's on the same site. Anyone ever find or see one like this?

Thanks for looking!
 
It's a Chinese cache coin. Some of them date back to the 1700's but aren't all that uncommon to find. I read that so many were made they had no value and were used as decorations on baskets and other things brought into America in the 1800's and early 1900's. I've found quite a few of them over the years, mostly around old homesites. No value but I like finding them anyway.
