I believe this coin is silver. It's around 3 cm in diameter.
Any help identifying and or apprising this coin is appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the community, Flyingcoyote!

All clues point toward Indian States but I can't find the match yet. Very nice find though!

I'm fairly sure that it's East India Company, Bengal Presidency; but can't think of a silver coin that matches. It does remind me of a copper Pice.

I think you got it, alganbagerap!
It matches pice of Calcutta, 1828 (KM# 56). But that coin has to be copper!
