Can anyone ID this 10mm Arabic / Ottoman / Indian(?) coin?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me improve the attribution on this 10-11mm bronze or copper coin weighing only 0.8g.

 

It‘a hard to get good pictures of the small coins, but I’m hoping the clear text on the obverse is sufficient. Thanks!

 

bahmani sultans 1/6 gani possibly

Thanks so much! I looked them up on Numista, and the closest I found based on size and design was a 1/9 gani of Ala Al din Ahmad Shah II (but it looks like the image for that coin is yours). Do you think this might be that issue? Thanks again!

Yes  also check the bottom of the book “Gordon and goenka the coins of the Indian sultanates” which is free on Scribd.com  to cross verify.

Hi - I’m not sure I understand your last message posted. I suspect some word(s) got ‘autocorrected’.
