Chinese Cash Coin - Age?

[washingtonian]

Hey folks!

Was out hunting a 1910s area today and got a surprise. A Chinese Cash Coin! I know these are a crapshoot because people were still losing them in the 1900s but I also know many of them are 300+ years old.

Can anyone help me identify the emperor/time period of the one I found today?




Thank you!!

And in case an expert chimes in here and that's easy for you - here are some photos of a Chinese Cash Coin I found in 2017. I never did figure out the age or Emperor on this one either.
