I picked this coin up at a shop the other day. The owner said it was from India and from the 18th century.
It weighs 10.84 g and is 23-24 mm wide. Made of silver.
I even tried the Google Lens app with no luck.
I've looked at thousands of coins and can't find a match.
Could someone help me out?

There is a date of AH 1210 in the first photo about 11 o'clock, and a regnal year of 3 at about 3 o'clock in the second photo. Although it looks similar to many Indian silver rupees, the numerous dots are a clue that it is Durrani. Here's a similar example from AH 1211.

So your coin is Durranis, Shah Zaman, silver rupee, Kashmir mint, AH 1210/RY 3, KM#575
