I was wondering if anyone could help me identify this coin? I believe it’s a Chinese Cash coin from Emperor Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty. So that dates it 19th century?
I think you're right. Found the coin in the book "Chinese Cash Identification and Price Guide" and it looks like the one you identified. Reference FD-2590. The mint is Bao Quan, also called the Board of Revenue Mint, Beijing. Photos should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise.
