Any idea what this is? Arabic coin?

Ca. 17 mm in diameter.

I have searched everywhere, but can´t find it. I think it is from around mid 17 century.

I would be very grateful if anybody got some information to share :bow:

I have no idea, but if I were to guess, I'd say either Indian or Arabic. Wait for an expert to come in on these.

 

Looks to be Arabic, dated 1152AH (4/10/1739-3/28/1740).

I'm far too lazy to wade through 1200+ pages of the 18th (not 17th) Century Krause looking for it, but the right-hand picture seems to have the number "56" at the top.

???

 

It's a Ceylon 1/3 Rixdollar counterstamped coin. KM# 85
Host coin is a Madras Presidency 1/4 Rupee. KM#413 with a frozen date of 1172/6.
Both listed in the 19th century KM.

Thank you very much! It never entered my mind it could be from that part of the world.

And thanks to all the others too
