David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1616 Posts	Posted 01/10/2023 01:39 am Hi all, I have another coin that is proving problematic. I have noted some similar script on a Sultan od Delhi coin, but it may just be a common word(s). https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces53042.html Composition = copper Diameter = 17.1-18.0mm Weight = 4.09g Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 635 Posts	Posted 01/10/2023 09:07 am This paika of Ala al-Din Muhammad of the Sultans of Dehli, AD 1296-1316, Goron/Goenka D235, appears to match one side, but not the other side, and has similar weight and diameter. https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=92151 In the description in Goron/Goenka it says "similar coins may have been struck in Madura by Ala al-din Udaiji Shah and possibly also by Ala al-din Sikander Shah". However, looking at the listings in GG for the Sultans of Madura I didn't see a match. Hopefully all this can provide a lead in the right direction.
