Toy Chinese coins

When to a park next town over to a sand volleyball court, found the usual clad couple quarters, pennies, etc. Then I find the first Chinese coin, I was right away skeptical of its authenticity just because where I was, moved on then about 5' away find another with the same markings they were both 4" to 6 " down which just lead me to think they are toys. I have dug 4 others over the years that were alot thicker than this and at locations where you might expect to find them. Has anyone ever dug these before?

    I don't know if those are authentic; however, I suggest you google Chinese cash coins. I have dug a few of them, and believe mine are from the 1700s.
