1⁄12 Mohur - 'Abd Allah II Badakhshan

The Shaybanid sultans of Badakhshan occupied an uneasy subordinate position within the dynasty's territorial structure, and 'Abd Allah II — the most powerful Shaybanid ruler of the sixteenth century — extended firm control over the region after years of internecine conflict among his own kinsmen. Gold fractional issues from Badakhshan under his authority are among the least commonly encountered of his prolific coinage, likely reflecting the province's limited mint activity relative to the major centers at Bukhara and Samarkand.
