It's a square foot Spade like this:

But there are significant differences in style compared to the Zeno and Hartill examples i saw, but I'm not an expert in this field. Therefore I leave the authenticity assessment to others.

I just found this link, but I have no characteristic of the currency

SC:
Sadly it is extremely unlikely that this is genuine.

There are some spade type coins that are not too rare and can occasionally be found for a good price but with these marking this one would be very rare and expensive if genuine.

The patina and condition match typical Chinese fakes.
