Muhammad Shah's coins bear fixed dates from former reigns, so any allocation to particular reigns, has to be done by die analysis. From this, it appears that most of the silver coins known so far were struck from the third reign onwards. Of the gold coins, one shares the obverse die used by Hasan Shah, and must have been struck during Muhammad's first reign, while the others were probably struck during the 4th or 5th reigns. Copper coins were probably struck in all five reigns.
