Reaching out for help again.
I've tried to find a clue for this one but to no avail.
It came with 9 others as a lot of circa 1600's Polish / Livonian / Hungarian / Prussian / Swedish occupation coins. However, it is radically different to any of the others. There is perhaps some Islamic text on one side, and a stirrup shape with possibly some more text on the opposite side. Sorry about the pictures, these are from the seller. I tried to capture it better, but it is all shadows.
Again all or any info gratefully received.

TT

This is the tamgha of the Golden Horde and/or Crimean Khanate, I believe. I miss Grinya, they'd have identified that coin very quickly...

Better photos would really help, but it's definitely somewhere in that direction.

Thanks so much for that, I have no idea what or who the Golden Horde is, but I am going to investigate it right now. My photo set up just doesn't capture the old bronze and billon coins properly. That is something else I need to work on.
Again, thanks for the information.

Well who knew?
From the Ghengis Khan era and onwards. I had no idea of the history.
I managed to take some better shots with my phone.
I'm hoping someone knows how to translate the writing.
Thanks again for all and any help.
