I guess this one is too far gone. It received 46 hits until today. Perhaps there is a clue in Balog?

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

I would guess it is Mamluk. The right side is the Kalima side, with "Muhammad Rasul Allah" in the center.
From the fragments on the left i cannot immediately come up with the name of a specific ruler.
But compare with this category on Zeno, which suggests Qala'un.

I think my coin is similar to this one

almost same weight and same diameter

but not sure if what is written on the observe and the reverse

Ayyubid, 564-fl. 866 » Branch at Hamah » al-Mansur Muhammad I, 587-617 » AE fals, with overlord al-'Aziz 'Uthman, caliph al-Nasir, Hamah and Manbij

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