Taiwan Tael Knockoff? [opgelost]

I have a coin that looks exactly like this one - https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces91676.html - but is 24 mm in diameter and weighs around 5 g. Because of the weight and size comparison with the linked coin it isn't silver (unless the % is very low), but I can't find this coin either on Numista or after a Google search mainly due to it being much smaller than all the other coins with similar designs.

Thanks - Chris

Pictures of your coin would help.

I don’t believe they are the same one since there are different characters


let me me do a little searching and I will get back to you

Yeah - I guess I didn't look at the characters. I'm a novice - "same" in my book is similar. My bad...

From my search there isn’t any silver coin of that design (or any coin in silver) with a denomination of 2 Sen (that’s what the 2 characters say). Did you try the magnet slide test or any other silver tests on it?

Hi -
In my original post, I stated I was pretty sure it wasn't silver (based on the size and weight of the Taiwanese coin). Since it is also magnetic, my assumption it was a knockoff or lucky charm or something. I can also not find anything on a cheap trade coin that is this smallish diameter. Thus my quandary.
I apologize if this was not clear. My fault.

​no, it’s my fault for not reading clearly. Although it might be a fake, it does look nice (other than the 2 characters) I think your right with a knock off. In Taiwan the night markets have lots of chinese sellers selling these types of fakes. Even Japanese 1 yen silver dollars for USD just below $2 but obviously they are all FAKE!
