Thanks both for your help, it's an interesting piece :)
Sadly it's not mine - so I'm not sure where it will end up.

This is definitely counterfeit - where is the mintmark?
Question - is it modern or contemporary?

This I think just says "Shah" without more details on the other side we're not likely to get much further.

Let us know how you get on with Coincraft - it's probably the only UK coin price guide / reference book I've read cover to cover (!)

There is a similar coincraft (but harder to find) for Scottish, Irish, Channel Islands and Isle of Man.

If the weight is correct I would imagine this is a Shahi, the unfortunate hole and mount marks having reduced the weight from around 1.15g. These are quite scarce coins.

These are not your coin type, but the legends look similar,

It's not that pound coin, as there is a dragon's claw holding the shield...
Not too sure what it is.

Weird auctions like that can be a simple way of money laundering, some overseas buyer buys something worthless then "pays for it" - thus transferring the money from abroad.. for a legitimate reason.
