Beschrijving voorzijde Multiline Arabic legend in Naskh script reading 'Al-Sultan bin al-Sultan Nasir al-Dunya wa'l-Din Abu'l-Muzaffar Nusrat Shah al-Sultan bin Husain Shah al-Sultan al-Husayni khallada Allah mulkahu' arranged in four registers across both sides of the coin, set within an ornate arabesque border of interlaced foliate design. The inscription records the full royal titulature of Sultan Nasir al-Din Nusrat Shah, son of Husain Shah, invoking divine perpetuation of his reign. The field is fully occupied by the calligraphic legend with no central motif. The mint name Dar al-Zarb Husainabad appears as part of the inscription. The overall style is characteristic of late Bengal Sultanate hammered silver coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Nusrat Shah's reign over Bengal was among the most politically active of the Sultanate period — he repelled the first Mughal incursion into Bengal when Babur's forces pressed east following Panipat in 1526, a fact that makes coins of his tenure markers of the last generation of independent Bengal Sultanate silver before Mughal monetary systems eventually subsumed the region. He also commissioned the translation of the Mahabharata into Bengali, a project with no parallel among his contemporaries on the subcontinent.

The DR#521 attribution places this within a documented emission series; collectors should cross-reference GG#B820 carefully, as die alignments within Nusrat Shah's tanka issues vary enough to affect attribution confidence.
