I’m stumped.

It’s a perfectly round 38.1mm Copper coin or token found in Michigan. No Reeded edges- It weighs 15-15.5grams.
One side has grain or wheat on it surrounded by dots. The best I can to clean it up a little.
The other side has some wavy lines on it. Almost like a waving flag but I can’t be for sure.

Please check it out. And HELP
 

I can't help, but it always helps to have a picture of the other side.

You would think that at 38.1mm and copper it would be somewhat easier to find something similar.
The 1920 Republic of China looks similar and a Civil War Union Token face has a waving flag.
But I am Stumped

Heymirth is correct, I believe. It's a 50 cash coin from China. This one is from Ho-Nan Province and dated 1920 (diameter is 38mm, thickness 2mm):

Yes yes yes. I could only find a Republic of China 10 or 20 coin. I didn’t see the 50
THANK YOU- What was that doing in the yard of a 1960’s home! So cool.
I Knew TNet could do it !

Thanks Again. Happy Hunting
