| Additional information |
Nasir Shah's reign over Malwa was cut short by internal dynastic pressure — he was deposed by his own nobles after roughly a decade, a pattern that plagued the Ghuri sultans of Malwa through much of the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Copper falus from this sultanate are notoriously irregular in flan preparation, a product of local workshop practice rather than centralized mint oversight, and survivors in any coherent state are genuinely scarce.
