Duriba fi zaman al-abd al-rafi rahmat allah muhammad bin // al-sultan al-sa'id al-shahid tughluq shah, fi saneh arba wa deb miat. 20mm, 8.95 grams. NM (Delhi?), dated (with the date written out) to 704 AH (erroneous date). Goron/Goenka #D370.

Interesting error date, seems to be corrupted "704" (1304 CE). This cannot be a real date, it is probably a corruption of either 740 or 734. Rare and interesting error.

Muhammad bin Tughluq was born to Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq, who was in turn the son of a Turkic slave father and a Hindu Indian mother, and was the founder of the Tughluq dynasty after taking control of the Delhi Sultanate. He saw a long and eventful reign - numismatically, he left a fascinating record which included numerous coin types which included remarkable issues of fiduciary bronze tankas and half-tankas.
