Reversbeschreibung	Central field bearing a multi-line Arabic inscription in bold cursive script citing the Abbasid caliph al-Mustansir (r. 1226–1242) as suzerain, a standard acknowledgment of Abbasid overlordship on Atabeg of Fars coinage. The legend is arranged in horizontal registers across the flan, executed in the robust hammered style characteristic of 13th-century Iranian gold dinars. The irregular flan edge reflects hand-cut planchet preparation typical of the period.

Zusätzliche Informationen	The Atabegs of Fars were a Salghurid dynasty operating as vassals — first under the Seljuks, then under the Mongols after the devastation of the 1220s and 1230s swept across Iran. The "uncertain ruler" attribution almost certainly falls within the reign of Abu Bakr ibn Sa'd (1226–1260), who managed the politically deft maneuver of submitting to Mongol authority early enough to keep Fars largely intact while neighboring regions were obliterated. Album A1928 covers a tight cluster of issues difficult to assign with confidence due to die similarities and the dynasty's inconsistent mint practices during this transitional period.
