Do you have any idea what is in the picture? The course is made of silver.
Sorry my English is not so good.

It could be some mutilated form of Thailand "bullet money". Some patterns did have seven pellets or dots. And if flattened, it might resemble your piece. Not to be confused with the common "bullet" shape money, but there were variations and some were sort of flat and rolled. Do I know for sure? No. Just a quick un-educated guess. If wrong, then maybe India or some sort of South Asian source. No doubt others will answer better than I can. But it might be in the right direction. Other ideas can include really old and crummy looking flat silver pieces of Switzerland or Germany or some other parts of Europe like Bohemia which perhaps is no help at all unless it prompts others to research with a better result.

No, not quite right. There are others but not shown in your post. Also, the item looks "uniface". That is a design on one side and sort of hollow on the back. Reminds me of a "kipper" or "klipper" along the line of a tiny crummy looking coin of Germany. And the size looks like a tiny old oddball coin from India. I do happen to know the pieces in your pictured post, but I am not suggesting your piece resembles those particular ones. Be patient and someone will answer better than I can.

@maremarinho, I agree with @albert that the rosette design looks like the same pattern as on some bullet money. However, as he points out, this coin is a thin, uniface coin not a thick hunk of metal. I think that it is much more likely to be from India, but I'm not sure. I do have a somewhat similar coin from Burma (albeit with a different design). See here for comparison:

Sorry that I cannot be more helpful.

thanks a lot ... and I was sure that India is concerned, but it all (I think) reviewed available information ... I'm interested in the subject, because the man who sold it did not know about it ... I'm not that kind of stuff I love.
Sorry my English is not so good.
