| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the Shi'ite declaration of faith (Kalima) in three bold horizontal lines of Nasta'liq script occupying the central field, reading 'There is no god but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God, Ali is the Friend of God.' Surrounding this central profession of faith, arranged in a continuous circular legend within the pellet border, are the names of the Twelve Imams of Twelver Shi'a Islam: Ali, Hasan, Husayn, Ali, Muhammad, Ja'far, Musa, Ali, Muhammad, Ali, Hasan, and Muhammad. The overall composition is densely inscribed, a hallmark of Safavid religious numismatic tradition, with the pellet border framing the design on an irregularly shaped hammered flan. |

Tahmasb II's reign was less a reign than a prolonged humiliation. The Afghans had sacked Isfahan in 1722, and Tahmasb ruled whatever the Hotaki occupiers and, later, Nader Qoli Beg left him — which was not much. Tabriz itself fell to Ottoman forces in 1724, meaning coins struck there during this period passed through a city actively contested between three powers. That this mint continued operating at all reflects less royal authority than local administrative inertia.
The A#2689.1 designation distinguishes this type from the concurrent Tabriz output under Nader's increasingly dominant supervision after 1726.
