Oh I guess I should include the state, I have three,
Jaora, Madhya Pradesh, and Ratlam.
Is that like city, county, and State?
For clarity I will consolidate my original guess
1894 1 Paisa of Muhammad Ismail Khan, Princely state of Jaora,
in Madhya Pradesh.

I see one other coin that matches parameters given, [nailbite]
UNLESS,
They changed both dates for each issue year and denom,
You know, so they add up (lol, subtract down)
to the magic number 57
In that case there's more

@looneylewy "You're going to outsmart yourself soon"
LOL, How right you are, my logic circuits are overheating,
Spock, switch me to backup.
regardless, I think I have narrowed it down so others can start guessing, at worst there's maybe 10 possibilities.
We are down to 2 denoms, 1P (issued 1893-96)
and 2P (1893-94)
Which have 57 years between their dual dates.
Question is, does @Spence clue
"listed in Numista" mean pictured?
if so there is only one other choice.

@keith12

. This coin was minted somewhere between 1869 to 1908 using the Gregorian calendar and oddly enough the date listed on the coin is not because it is 57 years later.
The coin is dated 57 years after it was minted.
Not to late to delete you guess. stick around 3 questions left

I see an 1893 2 paisa with a Hindi Urdu date 1950, a 57 year difference.
My guess shows 1894 and 1951, ditto.
Hence, Ergo, I believe this rulers coinage from this princely state are the only possibilities.
My calculations state the Chances of this being coincidental are less than 1 in 2.03 to the 26th power. Holy MOLEy
or was it 2.06 to the 23rd

Non Sequitur IMO,
My coins obverse shows Urdu/Hindi date translating to Gregorian 1951, The Reverse shows an Arabic Numeral date 1894
I wouldn't delete my answer, right or wrong.
you get one guess as far as I can tell
