Hi,

Can someone identify this coin for me? It is silver, 29mm, and 10.8gm. The seller thought it might be one of the Indian Mughal principalities.

A date and/or ruler name would be helpful, too.

Thanks,
John

John, a good starting place for your research would be this thread on coins of the Mughal Empire:
