Details about the coin:-

Ruler :- Nusrat Shah Tughluq ( AH797-802 / AD1395-1399)
Denomination:- Falus,
Minted at Dar al-Mulk Dehli
Obv: Arabic legend Nusrat Shah Sultani. Rev: Dar ur mulk Delhi.
Reference :- G&G D641,

Weight:- 4.06grams.

Nusrat Shah was a competing claimant installed for a few years in the reign of Mahmud bin Muhammad Tughlaq. His 'rule' lasted for only three or four years and during this time Delhi was effectively partitioned between the two rival Sultans. This infighting led the Mongol ruler Timur Lang to plunder Delhi in 1398, and Nusrat Shah was ousted in its wake.
