| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse field is filled with a multi-line Persian poetic legend in elegant Nasta'liq calligraphy, arranged in horizontal registers separated by decorative ruled lines. The central inscription proclaims the royal title and names the ruler Tahmasb II as Sahib-Qiran (Lord of the Auspicious Conjunction), referencing divine favor. The mint name 'Mashhad Muqaddas' (the Holy Mashhad) and the AH date 1140 appear in the lower register. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, characteristic of late Safavid hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tahmasb II's reign was less a restoration than a controlled fiction. After the Afghan Hotaki forces of Mahmud and then Ashraf occupied Isfahan, Tahmasb retreated north and east, his authority real only in the territories Nader Qoli — the future Nader Shah — chose to reconquer on his behalf. These Mashhad-struck abbasis belong to that precarious window when the Safavid court existed largely as Nader's political instrument, funding a campaign that would eventually make Tahmasb irrelevant.
Mashhad's status as a major Khorasani mint made it a logical base for Tahmasp's rump administration. By 1732, Nader had deposed him entirely.
