Does anyone know about this?

I have had this coin sitting in a drawer for about 15 years or so. I have no idea where I got it, nor do I have any clue about its origins or age. It looks pretty old though. There seems to be some Arabic writing on the back. If anyone might have some idea, I would love to find out more about this. In the meantime, back into the drawer it goes.
I know that I have fallen behind on my commenting, but I have been really busy lately. I will try to get back on track soon!

That's a cool coin. Maybe somebody used it as money for a soda machine, and you got it in the coin return or something.
Nice looking coin but never seen anything like it before.. Better keep it safe in your drawer!! :)
Love the detail on this shot. I know nothing about coins, but the shot is great.
Cool coin, looks japanese but what do I know?
Nicely photographed!
I wouldn't say it's Japanese. My guess would be Indian, maybe depicting a Maharaja or something.
