1 Tanka - Ala al Din Husain Shah Large Flan type

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.
