Agreed, though I can't quite make out a date; perhaps it's "797". Once again, a diameter or weight would help us narrow down the denomination. It's presumably a billon 1 tanka (9 grams), since they're the most common type for this reign, and the only one recorded in G&G as having been struck posthumously (Firuz Shah Tughluq died in AH 790). That would make it a D476, like the coins with that number on this page.

I am unable to read a date. It seems improbable to be "797". Kizr khan and Mubarak of the Sayyid dynasty have restruck dates over Firoz coins without adding their names. But their periods are "817 to 824" for Kizr and "824 to 837" for Mubarak.These coins have been mentioned as posthumous issues of Firoz in the standard catalogue of Sultanate coins of India by Dilip Rajgor.I am posting an image of a billon coin dated 817,making it an issue of Kizr Khan.
