Around 0.3g and 7 mm diameter.
I included two pics of one side of the coin.

Is the coin silver? If it is, there are some similarities to Habbarid (Amirs of Sind) coins, though I didn't see a match in Zeno.

No, the character of this specimen does not fit the Sindh Dammas.
In the second photo, one can read a partial "Constantinople". In the first photo, in the corner is a "Ha" character هـ‎.
That could point to an Ottoman Akce in name of Ibrahim (1640-48AD), Zeno link. But looking here there is no really good fit.
So we look at his son Mehmed bin Ibrahim(1648-87AD), now this seems to fit real nice !

Please add Zeno and Numista reference numbers. Thank you.

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