Three line inscription. The borders vary. A2683.1 has borders that resemble small dots or beads. However, in other instances, there is A2683.2 where the border is an inscription of the names of the 12 Shi`ite imams. `The first type, pellets around the reverse, was struck 1129-1132, occasionally in 1133. The Imams types was struck 1132-1135, also 1131 at Qazwin. Further overlap may exist, perhaps due to the continued use of functional dies. Type D abbasis and some fractions show a great variation in calligraphy, legend arrangement and borders. Numerous variants were struck at Qazwin during the period 1130-1134 (particularly in 1131), when Husayn moved his capital temporarily to that city. Many of these variants are artistically exquisite.`
