Got these coins.  Exact same size as cash coins, but can’t find any with cats/jackals/dogs on the front like this.  Any ideas?

Hello! Sure,not a legal tender coin! A ''charm'' token,obviously! To be searched for in Exonumia.

Definitely a Japanese Kitsune charm maybe from the Takekoma Inari Shrine. On the reverse a Buddhist symbol and at the bottom a key to unlock the stores of plenty.
