Note: Baz Bahadur, the last ruler of the Malwa Sultanate, briefly recovered his throne after defeating the Mughal commander Pir Muhammad, who had plundered Burhanpur and was returning laden with booty. Attempting to cross the Narmada River, Pir Muhammad drowned, leaving the Mughal army demoralized and allowing Baz Bahadur to reclaim Malwa—though only for a short time, as Akbar’s forces decisively annexed the kingdom in 1562 AD.

Unique within Malwa’s coinage, these double tankas follow the standard earlier adopted by Ahmad Shah III of Gujarat and bear the Shahada in the style of the Suri coinage. This specimen is further marked by unusual symbols such as crescent, line, and dot at the top left of the Shahada, an unlisted variety in Goron & Goenka.
