Comment :
The Gujarat Sultanate, particularly under Qutb al-Din Bahadur Shah (r. 1526–1537), saw the issuance of significant coinage that reflects the region's unique history and its interactions with neighboring powers. During Bahadur Shah’s reign, Gujarat's coastlines and trade routes came under increasing pressure from Portuguese naval power.
