Additional information

Muhammad Shah III ruled the Bahmani Sultanate through one of its most turbulent stretches, increasingly sidelined by his powerful minister Mahmud Gawan, who effectively administered the kingdom while the sultan retained ceremonial authority. The fractional gani denomination in copper served the lowest tier of daily market transactions in the Deccan — the kind of commerce Gawan's trade networks depended on but court chroniclers rarely bothered to record.
