Comment
Delhi StandardInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Qutb-ud-Din Bahadur Shah, who was the last ruler of the Gujarat Sultanate. Despite his efforts to maintain the empire's power, the Sultanate eventually declined and was eventually absorbed into the Mughal Empire. This coin serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the Indian Sultanates.
