drnsreedhar Pillar of the Community India 1995 Posts	Posted 05/22/2018 10:49 am Thank you very much PatAR.for your kind words. Here we have a coin of the next ruler, Khusrau shah - 1157-1160.AD Khusau shah, son of Bahram came to throne after his father, but could rule only for a short while before he died. He was followed by his son Khusrau Malik. This type of coins were previously attributed to Muhammad bin Sam. G&G has re-attributed this to Khusrau shah. Report this Post to the Staff
drnsreedhar Pillar of the Community India 1995 Posts	Posted 05/27/2018 03:09 am Khusrau Malik - 1160-1186.AD Khusrau Malik, son of Khusrau shah followed his father in 1160. Muhammad Ghori invaded Western parts of his sultanate which drove Khusrau to Lahore and to its east. In 1186, Muhammad made a final conquer and Khusrau lost his crown to be recorded the last Ghaznavid ruler. His coins deviated from the traditional style of the preceding Ghaznavid rulers. Bull was replaced with legend. On the obverse it read "Taj al daula Khusrau Malik" within circle of dots. On the reverse, "al sultan as azam" is seen. On some coins, two stars are placed, one above and one below the legend all these enclosed in a circle of dots. I am sorry for an error, the top figure is labelled "ud din" instead of "ud daula".
