Does anyone have any idea what metal this is or what these characters say?

    I did a Google lens search. This auction came up: https://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=6071080&AucID=6962&Lot=1149&Val=0e5b74b9f40e29d783559bac27c33a84

    And this old listing from ebay. I think it went unsold:
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/275602577064?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=

    I believe the ebay one looks exactly the same but not sure about the other. You can decide but looks pretty close..and I'm not saying its real or whatever...idk, I just had some extra time today haha.

    There are a lot of modern Chinese fakes of Chinese sycee.
    They have a way of making cheap pot metal look like older silver.
    An XRF test would tell a lot.

    Moonlight Mint

    Looks interesting... but as @dcarr said, caution... check metal content for sure. Cheers, RickO

    Xrf is a must! I don't like the look of the rev. Too much $ at stake for a swag. Good luck. Peace Roy
