Additional information

The Sultanate of Madurai was an exceptionally short-lived breakaway state in southern India, founded when the Delhi Sultanate's grip on the Deccan collapsed following Muhammad bin Tughluq's overextension. Nasir-ud-din Mahmud Damghan Shah ruled during the sultanate's most contested years, when the nascent Vijayanagara Empire was actively pressing from the north. Billon coinage of this sultanate is scarce precisely because the state itself barely outlasted its founders — the entire dynasty was extinguished by Vijayanagara forces in 1378.
