Image description

Muhammad Tughlak orders his Brass Coins to pass for Silver, AD 1330. Muhammad Tughlak, who reigned at Delhi from 1325 to 1351, was the author of many curious schemes. One of these was an attempt to force the people to accept, as silver, copper and braass money, on which he had engraved: "He who obeys the King, truly he obeys God." The penalty of refusal was death, but the measure ignominiously failed nevertheless. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920).
