Great link ffuries.
That coin looks too small to me to be a real cash coin, I'd say feng shui coin repro.

These are often bought in Chinese merchant shops and are then buried in local parks as an offering to a particular god for good luck.
I've found a few of them in parks in Toronto.

It looks like it was cast?

As noted by yaxthri, this coin looks to me like a replica cash coin...

Replica cash coin from a charm bracelet.
On the one I found you can see where the attachment ring broke off.
Cool find
