Description

Issued between AH 1002–1017 (1594–1610 CE) during the reign of Sultan Murtaza II, this copper ½ Falus belongs to the coinage of the Ahmadnagar Sultanate, one of the prominent Deccan Sultanates of medieval India. Struck on an irregular round flan and typically weighing around 9–10 grams, the coin reflects the practical copper currency used in everyday commerce across the Deccan region.

The obverse bears Persian inscriptions including the ruler’s name and mint designation, engraved in a bold calligraphic style characteristic of Ahmadnagar copper issues.

The reverse carries additional Persian legends arranged in a compact linear format, showcasing the elegant yet functional epigraphic designs favored by the Deccan Sultanates.

Coins of Murtaza II are sought after for their association with the politically dynamic Deccan period and their distinctive Islamic calligraphy. A fine addition for collectors of Sultanate coinage, Deccan history, and medieval Indian copper issues.
