Waw! I thought already ::) ... because you wrote "this" coin and I could not directly match the obverse with the reverse.
So, the second picture is certainly that of an Indian Bull Jital. The other side of this coin should show the horseman and not the text you showed us.
My pictures were made before it was clear that this were two different coins:

(To prevent question marks by the continuation: I had it wrong here. Obverse and reverse in the first message are of one and the same coin. Meanwhile, all superfluous messages between this one and the next were removed.)

Julio C, your coin should be a bilingual Bull Jital, like the Ghaznavids had them.
I only can not find directly a species with the same text fragments which shows your coin.

The lowest line on your coin reads: "Abd ul Rasheed", so your coin is a bilingual Jital of the Ghazni Sultan Abd ul Rasheed (Izz ad-Dawlah, 1049-1052).
