Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by multiple horizontal lines of bold Arabic Naskh script arranged in three registers, separated by a decorative interlaced band. The uppermost register carries the mint name or ruler's title, while the central and lower registers bear the principal legend. The coin's irregular flan is characteristic of hammered Anatolian Seljuk and successor-state gold coinage of the late 13th century. The script is deeply struck with strong relief throughout the field.

Beschrijving keerzijde Three horizontal registers of Arabic Naskh script fill the central field, with a decorative interlace or geometric ornament visible at the centre dividing the upper and lower legends. A dotted border runs along the inner edge of the coin's circumference. The lower register retains a partial date inscription. The bold, deeply struck lettering and irregular flan are consistent with Ilkhanid-period and contemporary Anatolian hammered gold dinars struck at Sivas.

Aanvullende informatie

Masu'd II's tenure as Seljuk sultan of Rum was defined almost entirely by Mongol suzerainty — he ruled, in effect, at Ilkhanid sufferance, and his coinage reflects the administrative complexity of a vassal state still projecting dynastic legitimacy through precious metal issues. Sivas, as a major Anatolian trading and administrative hub on the routes connecting the Iranian plateau to the Aegean, was a logical mint city for gold of this weight class.

The reference A#C1234 suggests this piece remains incompletely catalogued in the major standard references, which is not unusual for provincial Seljuk gold of this decade.
