I gathered some 30 Chinese coins over the last 10 years that are unidentified. Please help me classify these.

There were only a handful of emperors during the Qing Dynasty, their names are easy to identify

Once you know it is Jiaqing, you can look in the Numista
database to look for the mint.

Thank you French Lover,
It most looks like this coin:

However my coin is only half the weight and 3 mm shorter. Would that make it a fake coin?
