Metal Detect find ~ Need help identifying coin

I found this nice World coin this week while metal detecting. It looks to be from the Middle East. India

The obverse is of a women with four arms standing on a flower in the water feeding a duck and elephant. Also there is writing on the bottom but I can not read it.

I do not know what the reverse is. Tried researching the coin but can not find the coin. Any help identifying the coin would be appreciated.

The coin looks to be a silver proof.

Thanks, Steve

strange one that............i don't think it is a coin but a fantasy piece.

 

Thanks, what is a fantasy piece?

 

something that is made to look like a coin but has no monetary value, as opposed to a counterfeit.

 

Jetton.

 

What is a Jetton?

 

jetton - A counter or token used as a gambling chip or to operate slot machines.

 

The reverse is in Devanagari script and reads "Om", the sacred syllable in Hinduism. Can't really make out the obverse, but your description is in keeping with Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of good fortune.

So I guess it's a good luck charm.

 

Thank you everyone for your help. It's a nice metal detect find.
