While these coins say Boo-yuwan, indicating the Ministry of Public Works Mint, these are poorer quality and made of red copper, indicating they come from Xinjiang.Mint Kucha
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Qianlong Emperor's reign, who was the fourth emperor of the Manchu-led Qing dynasty, and ruled from 1736 to 1796. Despite being minted during his reign, the coin was issued posthumously, meaning after his death, and bears his name and title. This coin is a rare example of a posthumous issue of a Chinese imperial coin.
