Please move if this is the wrong forum.

I don't know any of the guidelines for grading silver Islamic coins

All I can do in cases like this is look at what other reputable sellers have done.

Here are a couple from that era I could find:

grading of coins is always tricky and more tricky if you don't hold the coin in your hand
based on the photos is between F and VF
F (15 but not 12) or VF (20 but not 25)

Thanks tdziemia and micha. Based on your inputs I have graded it almost VF.
