Help a noob

Honored people.

 

In my posession is a coin of to me unknown original, age and value. When picture googling I found a question here about similar coins answered in a very knowledge Rich way. Therefore I turn to you for help, as the local coin dealer had no idea and Said it was probably worthless. 

 

I would be very grateful for your help. The hexagonal one is not in question, I recognize it as Egyptian. It’s the other one.
 

Thank you!

Welcome to Numista!

 

The coin, which is in excellent condition,  is from India, Sultans of Jaunpur.  Maybe another member will be able to provide a more specific attribution. 

 

For best results with coin identification requests, it is desirable to provide cropped photos, state the apparent metal, and simply state the maximum diameter to the nearest mm and the weight to the nearest tenth of a gram.

N#8677 [21mm] 

 Which yes is not needed for identification, but for size. 

So yours below is maybe 20mm being slightly smaller - also rotated
