1/4 Mohur - Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar

Agha Mohammad Khan founded the Qajar dynasty after decades of brutal civil war following the collapse of Nader Shah's empire, finally unifying Iran under his control in 1794-95 — but coinage issued under his name begins earlier, as regional authority was asserted piecemeal. He was castrated as a boy by his Afsharid captors, a fact that shaped his notoriously ruthless consolidation of power. His reign ended with his assassination by his own servants in 1797, making any coinage attributable to his authority relatively short-lived and historically charged.
