I found my first Chinese "cash" digging a garden in my backyard 45 years ago, and like yours, it it was not very worn. I was told at the time that they were sewn to the inside of a basket for safe keeping. (A good use of the hole in the middle.) They may not have a lot of value, but interresting none the less. Good find.
