| Reversbeschreibung | Reverse field bearing a three-line Arabic inscription in cursive script, reading 'al-A'zam / al-Sultan / Muhammad', identifying the ruler by his regnal title 'the Greatest Sultan Muhammad'. The script is loosely formed and characteristic of the debased calligraphic style common to Bahmani copper fractional coinage of the later fifteenth century. The flan is thick and irregular, with a somewhat convex surface, and the strike is uneven, leaving portions of the legend weakly impressed. No mint name or date appears on this face. The overall presentation is consistent with other known specimens of this half-gani type. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Muhammad Shah III's reign saw the Bahmani Sultanate reach its greatest territorial extent, largely through the military campaigns directed by his powerful minister Mahmud Gawan, who effectively ran the administration while the sultan remained a ceremonial figure. The fractional copper gani served the lowest tier of daily market exchange in the Deccan, where the sultanate's economy ran on a three-metal hierarchy with gold and silver coinage reserved for treasury and tribute transactions.
Gawan's eventual execution in 1481 — the result of a forged letter used against him by court rivals — effectively broke the administrative coherence of the sultanate. Muhammad Shah III died the following year, and the Bahmani state never recovered its cohesion.
