Unknown-Asian-Most-Likely-India-Coin
Please help me from going blind. I have painfully looked through SCWC for the 19th and 20th century India listings and my old eyes don't register a match. Maybe you can help. It measures 23mm and weighs 6.21 grams. The obverse has Arabic script, the reverse has Hindi and another alphabet. Thanks in advance.

That looks like 1 pice from Bengal (British India), which would have been made around 1831.
