A different 1387 coin...

How-Far-Back-Can-We-Go?-Eighth-Edition! How-Far-Back-Can-We-Go?-Eighth-Edition!

Timurid Empire, first occupation of Iran (1387-8)
(Timur) in the name of Suyurghatmish
AR miri (2 dinars)
Furk (Forg) mint, 789 AH (1387 AD)
Album 2367.1, Zeno cat. 27562
apparently not on Numista (yet)

The date is pretty hard to read (it's at 6h in the inner circle, on the edge of the strike weakness), but this is a clear die match to all six coins in the linked Zeno category.
[This is not the same Zeno link as in the 7th edition entry! Apparently in the intervening two years Zeno had split this type by mint, so now I'm linking to the exact subcategory for Furk.]

That's a good example of die matching for ID, @j1m.
Now that I am familiar with your coin, I can more easily make out parts of the date. Identifying the mint is a bonus score for you also.
