Any one recognize this coin?

A few days ago my dad gave me a small box of coins I had accumulated when I was a kid. Nothing spectacular or worth very much but as I was looking at them I remembered I had never been able to figure out where this one came from:

Anyone know this one? It's aluminum and about 3/4 inch in diameter.

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

Looks like a Taiwanese coin. Here is a map of Taiwan:

Wes,
Thanks for that! As I suspected, the coin is pretty but low value otherwise.
And yes, it is Taiwanese (a 1 Chiao coin from 1955 ).

Rob,

No problem. I'm always glad to help. If you need help identifying any other coins, I always love a good challenge. 😀
