I believe I have a fals of Al-Nasir Mohammed, one of the Mamluke rulers. It 21mm in size and 2.26 grams.
Can anyone confirm this for me?

Yes Howard
al-Nasir Muhammad AE follis, second reign. Balog/ANS228 mint of Halab,no date.
on the reverse you read: "al-sultan al-Malik al-nasir Nasir al-Dunya wa al-din
Muhammad bin al-Malik al-Mansur qalawon" (son of the conquered king Qalawon).
On obverse: a Qura'anic verse.
Best wishes
