1/4 Falus - Ghiyath Shah

Ghiyath Shah ruled Malwa for nearly four decades, and his reign is better remembered for its extraordinary court culture than its military record — he is said to have maintained a harem of several thousand women, many of whom were trained in crafts, music, and administration. The copper fractions issued under his name circulated in one of medieval India's more stable sultanates, Malwa having carved out genuine independence from Delhi well before his accession.

The quarter falus denomination served the lowest tier of daily market exchange. Mitchiner's Western India reference places this type at #92.
