Most likely one of the Indian States, I'm going to move this to the Unidentified coin section for more help.

It looks like what is called "Dump Coinage".
Sort of square and very thick like the old Chunky candy bar.
Search catalogs from the 1700 & 1800's for India and maybe Persia too.
They also had crude heavy chunks like that.
