Help ID coin?

Hyperion

this is from a friends mini-cache..but.. what is it?

My guess is some sort of trade dollar (due to the varying(?) language characters)
very worn, very cool. I presume it's silver and colored yellowish with age and travel.

guesses?




collection was mostly pacific theater ... so I Figured it could be from anywhere

Just a guess:

Brass. 20 Cash. China. Szechuan. Early republic (1912-1916)

Wow! NICE!
and Brass too!

funny, coins owner was like "this is a brass" .. I being the coin "expert" was thinking silver

MrBreeze

its 100 cash

In the first picture, at 7:00 (second character from the left) is the symbol for 100.

I believe it is y#450a. In picture 2, at 5:00, I think I can see two lines (second character in from the right), making this year 2 (1913).

Nothing to add other than the fact that I really like this issue.
