Need some help on a Chinese coin

I cannot find this coin in my Krause. Both sides are actually darker like the first photo, but I believe the coin to be copper. It is just a bit smaller than a US silver dollar. Does anyone have any idea of it's date and value? Thanks in advance.

There are many variations in these issues, as you know, but the odd looking dragon and the mismatched sides lead me to think this counterfeit. There were large numbers of contemporary fakes though. I see them on ebay routinely but they are never as nice as this one. I don't know what it would be worth but I would not surprised if there was a premium of some sort.
