SAMUDRA-PASAI: Ahmad Shah, ca. 1270-1295, AR 1/2 mas (0.31g), cf. Leyton-SP1a (obverse inscription), sultan / ahmad // malik / al-zahir, small edge chip, some corrosion removal scratches, VF-XF. This is the second example of the silver coinage we have encountered for this ruler (cf. our e-Auction 28, Lot 677). There is little published information on the silver and base-metal coinage of Samudra, but the recent emergence of examples in auctions and private collections hint at a functional, if limited, multi-metallic currency system.
