Additional information

The Atabegs of Fars were a branch of the broader Zangid-era successor states that fragmented Seljuk authority across Persia and the Levant during the twelfth century, though the Fars line operated with considerable autonomy from their more famous Mesopotamian counterparts. Gold dinars from this dynasty are genuinely scarce in any form — Fars never controlled a major bullion route, and surviving documentary evidence for their mint operations is thin.

Album 1926 covers a narrow window of production tied to a polity that dissolved within a generation.
