| Beschrijving voorzijde | A horse depicted in full gallop to the right, rendered in high relief in a robust, naive style characteristic of Afghan provincial hammered coinage. The animal is shown with all four legs extended, with small pellets and decorative elements scattered in the field beneath the horse. A small symbol or mark appears above the horse's back in the upper field. The overall design is contained within a roughly circular border, consistent with the irregular flan typical of this issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Qandahar's civic copper issues of this period reflect the city's contested status — it changed hands repeatedly between the Safavid and Mughal empires throughout the seventeenth century, with the two powers fighting at least six major campaigns over the city between 1622 and 1649. By the 1660s, Mughal control had finally stabilized, and local administrative minting resumed under that authority. City-issued falus of this type circulated in a market economy where imperial silver was often absent from everyday transactions entirely.
