| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central square frame containing a multi-line Arabic legend reading 'Sultan Jalal al-Din bin Muhammad Shah Ghazi, may Allah perpetuate his reign,' with the AH regnal date inscribed to the left of the central square. The lettering is executed in bold raised script characteristic of Bengal Sultanate hammered coinage. The field surrounding the central square bears marginal inscriptions. The overall design follows the classic Indo-Muslim tanka format with the ruler's titulature prominently displayed. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck during the turbulent reign of Ghiyath al-Din Mahmud Shah, the last ruler of the Hussain Shahi dynasty, this tanka was issued in the years immediately preceding the Sher Shah Suri invasion that would extinguish the Bengal Sultanate as an independent polity in 1538. The absence of a mint name — unusual even by the loose standards of late Hussain Shahi practice — likely reflects administrative breakdown rather than deliberate policy, as Sher Shah's campaigns disrupted Bengal's minting infrastructure well before the final conquest.
