| 正面描述 | Hammered billon tanka in the Gujarat Standard type, the obverse field entirely occupied by bold Arabic calligraphic legends arranged in multiple horizontal registers across the flan. The inscription, executed in a robust Naskh-influenced script characteristic of Gujarat Sultanate coinage, fills the coin to its irregular edges with no border ornament. The lettering is deeply struck and slightly raised, displaying the dense, space-filling epigraphic style typical of mid-fifteenth century Gujarat issues. The field surface shows natural die flow and flan irregularity consistent with hand-struck production. |

| 背面描述 | Reverse executed in the Al-Khalifa style, with the field similarly divided into horizontal registers of bold Arabic script in Naskh hand, referencing Quranic or caliphal formulae as customary on Gujarat Sultanate tankas of this period. The legends fill the entire flan, with the inscription terminating near the lower edge of the irregularly shaped coin. The die engraving displays the characteristic thick, slightly angular letterforms of mid-fifteenth century Gujarati hammered coinage, with no mint name or date visible on this face. The surface patina is a warm brown-bronze consistent with the billon alloy. |

Qutb-ud-Din Ahmad Shah II ruled Gujarat for only seven years before dying without consolidating the reforms his father Mahmud Begarha would later complete. His billon tankas reflect the monetary degradation that plagued the Sultanate's mid-fifteenth century coinage — silver content had been progressively diluted across successive reigns as the court struggled to fund military campaigns into Rajputana while maintaining the trade infrastructure that made Cambay one of the wealthiest ports on the subcontinent.
DR#2134 is a tightly defined reference in a series where die variation is substantial and attribution can hinge on a single epigraphic detail.
