Found this detecting a tot-lot I think it is Arabic or Muslim? It was a homemade pendant and had some very thin foil copper or brass that made the loop but it broke off. anyone have any knowledge of these type of coins?

My first instinct was possibly Sanskrit. But I changed my mind. I’m going to guess it is in the Urdu language. Someone will be more familiar with the script. I’ll just get the proverbial ball rolling. My limited knowledge is that Urdu was derived from ancient Arabic and they look similar to each other in form/shapes. I’m not advising that you clean it. It may damage it. But it is very hard to see it clearly. Nice find and thanks for showing it!
