I'd appreciate help in identifying this coin. It is about 34mm in diameter and it weighs about 10 grams.

A search of the Zeno database revealed that this one is Chinese.

Thanks. Is it in the Numista catalog or does it have a KM number?

I don't believe that KM lists any coins before 1600 AD.
It looks like the Numista catalog has it

Thanks again. So Zeno says the denomination is 10 wen and Numista says 10 cash. Are these just 2 words for the same thing?
