<p>[QUOTE=&quot;THCoins, post: 2681372, member: 57364&quot;]Almost ! His name (or actually this is called a Laqab) was Qutb-ud-din Mubarak Shah.</p><p>Saying these Delhi coins are cheap is just like saying Roman coins are cheap. Some indeed are. But there are some very expensive types. The circle of collectors is just a bit smaller. Note that when you see these cheap ones in bright silver then they are usually resilvered recently by Indian coin dealers who like their coins shiny.</p><p><br /></p><p>Doug&#039;s coin also looks like a Habbarid specimen but the script almost looks like cuneiform. With some effort one can recognise the same text as i gave earlier. The name of the ruler is off flan though. This one may be genuine. But more than a decade ago a lot of these came on the market with even worse script. These are generally considered to be modern tourist fakes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
