1 Tanka - Sikandar Shah Arsah Satgaon mint

Sikandar Shah ruled Bengal for roughly three decades in the mid-fourteenth century, and his tankas from the Satgaon mint reflect that city's importance as the dominant commercial port on the Ganges delta long before the Portuguese arrived to complicate the trade routes. Satgaon — known to Arab merchants as Sadvij — handled a substantial share of Bengal's cotton and silk export traffic, which made control of its mint politically meaningful rather than administratively routine.

The GG#B188 attribution places this within George Goron's Bengal sultanate sequence, a classification framework that remains the working reference for this series despite ongoing debate over precise reign-date assignments within the 781–1390 AH bracket.
