A. Qutbuddin Aybak
B. Iltutmish
C. Alauddin Khalji

Answer: Iltutmish
Option b is the correct answer.
Iltutmish introduced the coins of silver Tanka and copper Jital. They were the two basic coins of the Sultanate period. He was the first one to print the name of the last Caliph of Baghdad in his coins as he got recognition for his rule from the Abbasid Caliphate of Baghdad.
