Sorry, Eric, but I think DCH was spot on. I was unconvinced at first, but the mintmark "Sa Ga" seems to be distinctively of Sayaji Rao III, and the number "61" could indeed be a retrograde "12", from 1312. And looking closer, the "spot" above the sword does indeed seem to have the ring of dots around it, like the sun-face of KM/Y C23. Given the variability in hand-struck coinage, I think it's close enough to call it.

If the coin actually is a porous as it looks in the picture, it's either been badly corroded, or it could even be a cast contemporary counterfeit.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
