I found this coin metal detecting in the Massachusetts USA.
I have only cleaned it with water.
weight:2.735 grams
diameter:28 mm
I have identified it(I think) as the following:https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces33123.html
Is this the correct coin? If so what is the value and year? Thanks.

Looks like the correct coin
Date = AH1223
Regnal year looks like 39 ?
date of the coin is 1845AD
probably used on a belly dancers costume
value not very high (damage and worn)

possible replica.
As I sais before, used on a belly dansers costume.
These coins used there are mostly replicas
