I have a coin embedded in lucite. I don't know if this is Chinese or Japanese and I would like to know what the letter says. Any help will be appreciated.

Are you sure it is a coin? It seems unusual to mount a coin in that manner, so that only one side of it will ever be seen. Not that I have a better idea, especially since there's no indiction of size. Just thinking out loud, I guess.

The reason someone mounted it that way is so you don't get to see that the other side says "souvenir coin," in English:
