| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription occupying the full face of the broad, irregular flan, consistent with the large-flan type attributed to the reign of Husain Shah. The legend records the sultan's name and lineage: 'Husain Shah al-Sultan bin Sayyid Ashraf al-Husayni, khallada mulkahu' (may his reign be perpetual). The script is rendered in the regional Naskh hand, with bold strokes and a fluid layout that fills the available field. The inscription is contained within an unbordered area, and the rim shows the characteristic irregular edge of a hand-struck hammered tanka. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ala al-Din Husain Shah ruled Bengal for over two decades and is widely regarded as one of the most capable sultans the region produced — his reign saw significant territorial expansion into Assam and Orissa, and a degree of religious tolerance unusual for the period. The large flan format of this tanka type is a deliberate departure from the thicker, smaller flans common to earlier Bengal issues, producing a broader, thinner coin that displays the die work more fully.
GG#B761 places this among the documented varieties catalogued by Goron and Goenka. The extended date range reflects a type struck consistently across much of his reign rather than a single year emission.
