This exceptional copper 1/4 Falus from the Gujarat Sultanate represents a significant piece of 15th-century Indian numismatic history. Minted during the reign of Nasir al-din Ahmad Shah I (1411-1442 AD), this fractional denomination is graded in Extremely Fine condition, showcasing remarkable preservation for its age. Weighing just 2.44 grams and measuring 11.69mm, this diminutive coin features Ahmad Shah’s name on the obverse and “al-sultan” on the reverse, reflecting the Islamic inscriptions common to Sultanate coinage.

What makes this piece particularly compelling is its classification as G23 in the standard references and its designation as a very rare fractional denomination. Copper fractional coins of this period rarely survive in such excellent condition, making this an outstanding acquisition for serious collectors of medieval Indian currency and Islamic numismatics. The coin’s historical significance lies in documenting the commercial and monetary systems of the prosperous Gujarat Sultanate during the Bahmani period. This is an ideal addition for those seeking authenticated, museum-quality examples of pre-Mughal Indian coinage.
