I'm trying to ID this coin. I believe it may be Indian? 15mm diameter, 3mm thick, and 5.2g. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Any idea if it's silver or copper? Colour in photo a bit misleading.

Suspect it's silver. Princely State of Baglana. Similar coins here:

yes - KM#72
Rather than a princely state this is a Mughal provincial issue.

Thank you both. Yes the lighting is a little deceiving, my apologies. The coin does appear to be silver though heavily tarnished. andy.g: You appear to be correct. Unfortunately the standard catalog lacks many photos of coins making an id very difficult (at least in my opinion). But I thank you for your expertise!
