Beschrijving keerzijde Central square panel bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in raised Naskh script recording the name and titles of the issuing sultan, Rukn al-Din Firuz, within a framed square border. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script encircles the square panel along the periphery of the flan. The reverse follows the same anionic, text-only design convention as the obverse, characteristic of early Sultanate silver coinage. The strike is bold though uneven, with some weakness at the edges due to the hammered technique.

Aanvullende informatie

Rukn al-din Firuz's reign lasted roughly six months in 1236 before he was deposed and killed, making his coinage among the shortest-lived issues of the entire Delhi Sultanate sequence. His mother, Shah Turkan, effectively held power during that period, which may explain the administrative disarray reflected in the relative scarcity of well-documented die pairings for this type.

The Lakhnauti mint designation places this piece in Bengal, then a distant provincial seat operating with considerable autonomy from the Delhi court.
