Qutb-ud-Din Mubarak Shah ruled for just under three years before being murdered by his own favorite, Khusrau Khan, in 1320 — one of the more squalid ends in the Sultanate's already violent succession history. His reign saw a brief reversal of his father Alauddin Khalji's austere fiscal policies, including the relaxation of market price controls that had been among the most sophisticated economic interventions in medieval South Asian governance. Billon issues from this reign are relatively scarce simply because the window was short, and the subsequent Tughluq dynasty had little interest in preserving the coinage legacy of a ruler whose killer they had overthrown.
