Any help is appreciated. Extra credit if you can give me a date.
Thank you.

Taiwanese commemorative coin for Sun Yat-sen, valued at 100 yuan (Taiwanese dollars I assume).
The date on it is Year of the Republic of China 54, month 11, Day 12. Which I believe correlates to November 12th, AD 1965. Which is the exact centenary-date of Sun Yat-sen's birth.
It is one of the few Taiwanese cirulating silver coins; .750 fine silver. The face value is equivalent to about US$3. Unslabbed AU catalogues at around US$30; the scuffing on the high points on this one would disqualify it from an MS grade, IMO.

Apparently I have been awarded one DPOTD.
Thank you both. I found a 4 piece set online and a bunch of the 50 Yuan as single examples. I appreciate the help.
It's quite a looker in hand... big, shiny & silver cartwheel!

if you want to sell PM me with price.
The issues on the high points are not wear and this would be considered MS, just fyi. Looks like an MS64
