| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hammered silver flan displaying a three-line royal and mint inscription in nastaliq script, arranged in horizontal registers across the field and divided by ruled lines. The central legend reads 'Sultan / Abbas Thani / Zarb Tiflis' (Sultan Abbas II, struck at Tiflis), identifying the ruling shah and the Georgian mint city of Tiflis (modern Tbilisi). The bold, flowing script is typical of Safavid provincial mint production under Shah Abbas II. The border is irregular and slightly clipped, consistent with the hand-struck nature of the issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Abbas II inherited the Safavid throne at age nine in 1642 and proved a more capable ruler than his dissolute father Safi I. The Tiflis mint — operating in what is now Tbilisi, Georgia — functioned under Safavid control during intervals of contested suzerainty over the Caucasus, a region the Safavids and Ottomans had fought over repeatedly since the sixteenth century. Abbas II's firm hold on eastern Georgia during this period kept the mint productive.
Type B of this reign is distinguished from Type A by specific calligraphic arrangements in the mint and regnal formula — a detail that matters for attribution given how frequently Safavid silver of this period circulated far beyond its region of issue.
