I am confused by this one. Is it an IPS issue or a coin of the Sultanates. Please help attribution if possible.

It's a coin of the Sultans of Gujarat of Nasir al-Din Mahmad.
Please provide the weight and try to atribute it either to I, II or III.

Dear Oesho,

Thank you for the attribution of the coin to the Sultans of Gujarat, Nasir al-Din Mahmad. Since not many coins were issued during the very short rule of Nasir al-Din Mahmad II, it will leave the choice between Nasir al-Din Mahmad I & Nasir al-Din Mahmad III.

The weight of the coin is 11.2g, which is the standard weight of a 96 rati falus and was a standard used by both Nasir al-Din Mahmad I & Nasir al-Din Mahmad III, I am nor able to solve the riddle. Please help.

This is the attribution provided by sdbridges3 on Zeno:

Sultans of Gujarat, G157, Nasir al-Din Mahmud I, AE Falus, Mustafabad. Date off bottom of flan on obverse (left image). Most likely 882 AH as it is the only published date.
