Beschrijving keerzijde Monolingual Arabic legend disposed in multiple lines across the reverse field, naming the sultan in full regal style. The inscription is struck in the same bold Naskh hand as the obverse, with the text distributed across the available flan space. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular outline and uneven relief of hammered coinage produced at the Delhi Sultanate mint during the reign of Ala al-Din Muhammad Shah. No mint name or date appears on the reverse. The overall style is consistent with the anonymous, epigraphic coinage tradition of the early fourteenth-century Sultanate.

Aanvullende informatie

Ala al-Din Khalji's reign produced some of the most aggressive monetary reforms in the Sultanate's history. Facing the enormous cost of his Deccan campaigns and the need to maintain a standing army of unprecedented size, he systematically debased the coinage while simultaneously fixing commodity prices by state decree — a combination that, by most accounts, actually worked for the duration of his reign, though it collapsed almost immediately after his death in 1316.

The 6 gani denomination sits in the middle of his restructured billon and silver hierarchy, introduced as part of that reform program rather than inherited from his predecessors.
