Hi Everyone
I know this is really poor quality, but any insight would be appreciated.

The coin seems rather thick and so it looks like a copper "dam", maybe of the Mughal Empire.
Weight and diameter are important and ... thickness !!!

Underneath a first coin for comparition:
 
It is a copper Takka from Jodhpur State, Man Singh (1791-1843). Weight: 21,1 g.
Sorry, reverse not available.

Mmm ... now that I see them together, not so convincing.
Take it as a first try ;).
