  1. The coin is a fantasy item and is really a modern made item. It is not a coin but could be called a medal. They come from China and belong in the fake category, but the item was never made in the first place so the oriental collectors consider them Fantasy items.. I have been buying them for sometime due to the Dragons on them. I collect Dragon coins real or not, as well as ancient oriental coins from China,Japan and Southeast Asia. I have found no books with that item in it, before I forget it can also be called a charm or good luck piece. It may take me some time to get a translation and by that time your question will be to old and not here anymore. Email me with your email address and I will get back to you or go to a library and get a book on Chinese Characters and look them up.
