Double Falus - Nasir al-Din Mahmud Shah

Nasir al-Din Mahmud Shah ruled Jaunpur at the sultanate's political peak, when the Sharqi dynasty was actively contesting Delhi's dominance over the Gangetic plain. The double falus denomination served the dense bazaar economy of a court city that contemporaries ranked among the most cultured in northern India — the Sharqi sultans were serious patrons of music, architecture, and Sufi scholarship, and their copper coinage circulated through a genuinely monetized urban economy rather than as token issue.

Jaunpur was extinguished by Bahlul Lodi in 1479, and much of its material culture was deliberately suppressed afterward.
