@kanta, any chance of you providing better pics to help us with the identification? When I lighten, crop, and enhance yours, they are pretty hard to discern. Thx.

It appears to be of Malwa sultan, Nazir shah. Better pics of both side might be useful.

I agree that clearer photos, plus dimensions to the nearest mm and weight to the nearest tenth of a gram, would greatly help with attribution, as described in the posting guidelines.

Having said that, and following drnsreedhar's astute lead, looking through Goron & Goenka, your coin bears a resemblance to a falus of Mahmud II (successor of Nasir Shah), either M171

or M172

Perhaps with the coin in hand you can tell whether it matches one of these. Bear in mind that these faluses have some variability in symbols shown.
