Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Kalimullah Shah, who was the last ruler of the Bahmani Sultanate, and his reign marked the beginning of the decline of the Sultanate. Despite this, the coin still holds significant historical value and is a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
