Hi,

As per my research this coin is 1 Dam - Akbar. The coin weights about 20grams. However I wanted to ask about the mint of the coin and if you can provide the link to it.

 

Thank you in advance.

Thank you so much Parimal.

Also, what does this leaf like symbol means?

Sorry no idea about the leaf like symbol. Maybe it is just one of the many decorative ornaments found on Mughal coins or might be a mint mark of the mint master. We may never know the true purpose of it due to lack of documentation around it

I agree with Parimal, looks like a decoration specific to Mughal coins. Below are two decorations that looks like the one on your coin.
