I'm close, but not exact: Ancient 1616 Muslim 786 Copper Most Unusual Token Coin [Rare] | Indian Rupee on Internet The numerals 786 in western symbols, as well as in Arabic, represent the common Islamic phrase "bismillah ur-Rahman ur-Rahim" (in the name of Allah, the merciful, the compassionate) in Abjad numerals.In the Abjad system, to the 28 letters of the Arabic alphabet are assigned numerical values; the cumulative numerical value of the above phrase is 786.
IMO, it's a modern religious souvenir.

wish I could help you out! instead I'm just one of those guys that posts anyways :laughing7:. it's really cool whatever it is, and certainly a treasure if it came from your Grandfather. My grandfathers items are my most treasured possessions, it's the only way I can still feel like he's around. he was a great man, and a WWII vet.

Just a friendly tip - dont ever "clean up" a coin or an antique of any kind. If it is or had been valuable you can easily remove 50% of the value by cleaning.
