This exceptional copper 1/2 Falus represents a significant piece of medieval Indian numismatic history, minted during the reign of Ala al-din Bahaman Shah (1347-1359 AD) of the Bahamani Sultanate. Weighing 1.50 grams, this coin features authentic Islamic calligraphy with “ala al-dunya wa ‘l din” inscribed on the obverse and the sultan’s name on the reverse, reflecting the artistic and administrative sophistication of the 14th-century Deccan sultanate.

Graded in Very Fine condition, this scarce specimen displays excellent detail preservation despite its medieval age. The Bahamani Sultanate was one of India’s most influential sultanates, and coins from Bahaman Shah’s early reign are particularly sought after by serious collectors. This piece is catalogued as BH21 in numismatic references, establishing its authenticity and rarity. The copper denomination and limited circulation make surviving examples increasingly difficult to acquire.

Ideal for historians, numismatists, and serious collectors of Indian medieval coinage, this coin offers tangible connection to the rich cultural heritage of the Deccan region. Its scarcity, historical significance, and fine condition make it a valuable addition to any collection focused on sultanate-era currencies.
