That design of the square with four lobes looks familiar. West Asia, I would say. Someone who can read Arabic script is like to get much closer to an id.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

I'm pretty sure it is Juchid/ Golden Horde, Abdallah Khan (764-771 H), Urdu mint, compare this from Zeno 4652.

 'Abdallah Khan (عبد اللہ خان), was Khan of the Golden Horde in 1361–1370, as a protégé of the beglerbeg Mamai. While ʿAbdallah was recognized as khan throughout the territories dominated by his patron Mamai, he was in possession of the traditional capital Sarai only intermittently, in 1362, 1367–1368, and 1369–1370.

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