Is it an Indian coin?

Hello everyone,

Need help regarding this coin. Don't know the origin of this coin. Can anyone help me with this numista index? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Regards

on the right picture, I think the date is at the bottom, mostly off flan
on the left picture, in the middle I think I see 41, written in Gujarati, Kutch or Devavnagri
But I can be wrong

Nice coin

​Your effort is much appreciated. But can you tell me who's issue is this? and the exact numista entry?

Thanks again...

Hello again,
It's a half tanka (the weight should confirm the denomination) from the Sultanate of Gujarat too, but under the rule of Mahmud Shah I and minted at Mustafabad (Pakistan) in 917 AH.
The year is partialy visible on the bottom left part of the first picture ("[9]17").

So this page, but we will have to add a new line for this year : https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces64065.html

Another example here with the year 917 : https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=167702

​Thanks for your suggestion. But the reverse side doesn't match I suppose. Could it be the link by any chance?

Your second picture is upside down.

The pictures showing on your link are for the Mustafabad mint as well, like your coin and the first link I gave.
The attribution of the Numista coin can be seen here : https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=151627

So we have two different pages for the same coin.

​Thank you so much. The pictures from your link have more similarity than the numista link.
So, shall I enlist the coin in the numista link I mentioned above?
