A
Correct answer
Explanation
Muhammad bin Tughlaq introduced several experimental economic measures, including a token currency system. He issued copper coins that were meant to have the same value as silver coins (Dinar). This was an early attempt at fiat currency, though it ultimately failed due to counterfeiting and lack of public confidence.
