And here's another one, with a Solomon's Seal on one side. Could it be an Ottoman manghir perhaps?

Sorry, I forgot to give the measurements: 13-15 mm., 1.48 g.
I looked at the illustrations in Valentine's Copper Coins, but I couldn't find anything exactly like this, and the Moroccan coins seemed for the most part to be rather bigger?

Thanks! Perhaps this is just a slightly lighter coin?
