| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays a bold Persian poetic legend inscribed in elegant Nasta'liq calligraphy across the coin's field, divided into two registers by a horizontal line. The upper register bears the opening verse glorifying the sovereign's world-conquering seal, while the lower register identifies the issuing authority as Shah Abbas II and includes the mint name Ardabīl. The script is deeply struck in the hammered tradition, with fluid, sweeping letterforms characteristic of mid-seventeenth-century Safavid coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, as is typical of hammered issues of this period. No figurative imagery appears; the design is entirely epigraphic. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Abbas II came to the Safavid throne at age nine in 1642, and the early years of his reign saw the royal mint at Ardabīl — a city of particular dynastic significance as the ancestral home of the Safavid order — produce coinage under the supervision of regents. Ardabīl's mint was never among the empire's highest-volume producers; its issues carry a certain regional weight given that the Safaviyya Sufi order had been founded there three centuries earlier.
The Type B1 classification distinguishes this issue from later stylistic revisions made during Abbas II's reign as his administration consolidated its own identity apart from his father Safi I.
