In my search, I try to combine:
On the obverse: "Al Sultan al Azam" and the use of that kind of (central) stars.
On the reverse: the kalima Shahada.
The type of lettering makes me think of the ayyubids, the Seljuks ... and is rather Central Asian than Arabian or Persian.
Until now without succes.
But than again, I am a bit clumsy these days  :-\ ...

Not Mamluk, but Seljuk of Rum as I can read

"Al Sultan al Azam Keyqubâd", you can read?
I could find coins with star in text of Keyhüsrev III and that is about the nearest I can come ...
