Keeper coin from Mexico trip

Found this Chinese cash coin in Playa Del Carm, Mexico just last week. I know it's not valuable but it still is great to dig up a coin that is 211 to 270 years old. Also be warned - modern Mexican coinage has brass or bronze center with a nickle outer ring. I though this ring would be just like an American nickle as in non magnetic but they must use a purer metal stock and they are magnetic hence when I used my detector discriminating only iron and foil I no doubt miss some these coins. Next time I'll use no discrimination at all and see if my Peso coin count is higher.

I would certainly consider that a great find. They appear to be a bit common here, but I would love to find on all the same as well.

Congratulations,
