Might be a chance its not from the period of Jahangir, hard to tell. Not much references

I am more experienced in the field of ancient and chinese coins, south-east asian coins included too!

The righthand image appears to be upside down which doesn't help, added to that the weight is nowhere near for a ½ Dam of either Jahangir or Akbar

only 2 dates are listed for this type, 949 and 956 AH, other dates may have come to light since the catalogue was produced.

 As is common on Gujarat coins the date can be in different places and also split up with parts fitted in where there is a space. On the zeno coin you can see a 9 and a 5, 6 is off the flan but the date can only be 956
