Chinese Amulet or Charm ID?

Hi all! I believe this is a Chinese Amulet or a charm, but I'm not exactly sure. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated. It has a diameter of approximately 3.75 centimetres and weighs 12.7 grams. Thanks!

    That's a pretty cool medal, Kenny. How did you come across it?

    Thank you @harasha! I found it at one of my local dealers (not in the 25 cent "junk" bin, but in the red row boxes that contain coins with numismatic value). It was labeled "Chinese Amulet" and he is very knowledgeable about his stuff. The medal was cheap enough that, even with me not knowing a ton about it, I found it pretty interesting.
