Need help identifying presumably ancient silver coin

This piece of a coin is heavy and non magnetic, I unfortunately do not have enough knowledge to make any assumptions on what this is, I would greatly appreciate any help thank you- DAJ ( Do to its condition I tried to give as many angles as I could)

Hi Jake,

This coin looks like an Indian "Punch" coin.

See e.g. https://www.acsearch.info/search.ht...s=1&currency=usd&thesaurus=1&order=0&company=

However, I am unfamiliar with Indian Coins. Hopefully someone more knowledgable can jump in to assist. The pattern on your coin is certainly similar to coin 2 of plate 1 in my copy of Coins of Ancient India by A. Cunningham. That coin is a silver Karshapana (or Purana).

Try this website here. You should be able to find a similar coin and attribution: http://coinindia.com/

For instance, on this page there are coins similar to yours in appearance: http://coinindia.com/galleries-magadha.html
