Comments

Qutb-ud-din Mubarak Shah (r. 1316–1320), also called Mubarak Khan, was a ruler of the Delhi Sultanate in present day India. A member of the Khalji dynasty, he was a son of Alauddin Khalji.

For the first couple of years of the reign the coinage was round but, from AH718 it was struck on square planchets.
