Nice coin ! with a clear mintname : "Maqadas Mashhad " (Meshhed the sacred)
the date : "127x" could be 1270 AH if we consider the dot present in the loop of the "L" of falus.

Dear Saro, I think there is a " 4 ۴ " to the right of  of  " 12 ۱۲ ", so the date could be " 1247 ۱۲۴۷ ".

Coin collecting has a curious name. It is also called the "Hobby of Kings".
