Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a multi-line Arabic religious or regal inscription in bold calligraphic script, arranged horizontally across the field in two or three lines. The text, characteristic of Gujarat Sultanate copper tankas, likely contains the ruler's name and titles. The lettering is deeply incuse into the irregular copper flan, with the style reflecting the provincial hammered technique common to Bahadur Shah's coinage. The field shows typical flat areas and surface irregularities consistent with hand-struck production.

Aanvullende informatie

Qutb-ud-Din Bahadur Shah ruled Gujarat at the peak of its sultanate's power, but his reign was defined almost entirely by conflict with the Mughal emperor Humayun, who invaded and briefly occupied Gujarat twice in the 1530s. Bahadur Shah was killed in 1537 during a meeting with Portuguese officials off Diu — almost certainly thrown overboard — making his coinage among the last issues of an independent Gujarat before Mughal absorption effectively ended the sultanate's autonomy.
