Chinese Coin Identification? [solved]

4 posts • viewed 128 times

Is this coin a real coin or just some sort of trinket. It's 23mm (unknown weight or composition) and the two figures protrude out from the face a few millimeters. It cost me 7000 won in Seoul I bought it because it looked interesting.

You can see differences in the design of two deities on reverse.

Although identities of the Buddhist deities on the reverse are not documented, the scene may represent "tongzi bai Guanyin": Child of Wealth standing on the lotus base on the left offering prayers to Guanyin seated in dhyanasana on the right.
