Option 3 : Firuz Shah Tughlaq

Under Firuz Shah Tughlaq's reign, the billon currency seems to have nearly entirely replaced silver coinage.

Firuz Shah Tughlaq was a Sultan of Delhi from 1351 to 1388 AD.
He sat on the throne after the death Muhammad bin Tughluq.
The long reign of Firoz Shah Tughlaq seems to have established his coinage as a popular medium of exchange.
Firuz Shah Tughlaq issued coins in gold, silver, copper, and billon.
Gold, copper, and billon coins issued by him are common, but his silver coins are rare.
During his reign, there was a shortage of silver coins in circulation and hence the billon currency seems to have nearly entirely replaced silver coins.

Thus, the correct answer is - Firuz Shah Tughlaq.
