Comment
Gulbarga/Bahamani Sultanate was a state of the Deccan in South IndiaInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Taj-ud-din Firuz Shah, who was the third Sultan of the Bahmani Sultanate and ruled from 1398 to 1422. The Bahmani Sultanate was a powerful kingdom that ruled over much of the Deccan region of India during the 14th to 16th centuries. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
