I can take better photos if needed - these were made with a magnifier held up to a cell phone camera.
approximately 19 mm wide, about 8.7 mm thick, weighs a little over 20 grams

Is it identifiable? Do I have my first Mughal Empire coin?

Many thanks!

​Sorry cant read the date on your coin. Actually most coins of tis type don't bear dates, the flan's width was too small but very thick.
