[Razia Sultan](https://www.worldhistory.org/Razia_Sultan/), [Silver](https://www.worldhistory.org/Silver/) Tanka, 13th-century silver [coin](https://www.worldhistory.org/coinage/) held by the Sarmaya Arts Foundation, Mumbai, c. 1236.
Coins of Razia Sultan are incredibly rare, given that her reign was so short. Her father's name, Iltutmish, and the word 'nusrat,' or 'assistance,' are written on the coin to showcase the uncertainty of her ascension and early rule.
