From the weight, diameter, and general appearance I believe this could be a two-thirds gani from the Bahmani Sultans of the Deccan in India. However I wasn't able to find a match with a quick search in Zeno and look through Goron/Goenka (though I might have missed something). Maybe at least this can provide a lead in the right direction, and another member can have more success in its attribution.

Thanks Seeker55. Will delve into the that lead. Likewise I had no success with Zeno.

FWIW the lines at 6h on the first pic look very much like a date ending in 29 or 69. Hope that helps...

I'll try Zeno too, but I have approximately no experience using it to ID Indian coins.

@january1may - Yes, they may well be part of a date. Well spotted. Every little bit helps. :-)
