    Despite the terrible pictures in Krause, I'm fairly certain you have either Y#120a, or Y#120a.1. The difference is in the size of the English letters and the width of the dragon's face, so certainty pretty much requires having one of each to compare (or a source of better photos). Both are undated coppers listed as 1902-05, shortly before the overthrow of the Empire.

    According to Krause the Wuchang Mint in Hupeh began minting milled coins in 1895.

    It is a fairly common coin. Likely worth around five dollars.
