Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅔ Falus coin from the Sultanate of Ahmadnagar is that it was issued during the reign of Murtaza II, who was known for his military campaigns and administrative reforms. Despite being made of copper, the coin was still considered a standard circulation coin and was widely used in trade and commerce during that time.
