| Beschrijving voorzijde | Irregular hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Persian legend in elegant Nasta'liq script, divided horizontally by a raised linear bar. The upper field carries the opening portion of the mint and royal dedication inscription, while the lower field contains the mint name Mazandaran. The legends are rendered in bold, flowing calligraphy characteristic of Safavid coinage of Shah Abbas I, filling the entire flan to its irregular edges. The devotional verse identifies the issuer as 'Abbas, the dog of 'Ali, who struck this coin for the sake of goodness at the Mazandaran mint. |

Abbas I died in January 1629, making this piece a terminal issue — struck in the final year of a reign that had fundamentally restructured Persian monetary administration. Abbas centralized mint control as part of broader fiscal reforms tied to his standing army, the ghulam corps, which required reliable, standardized silver payment. Mazandaran, on the Caspian littoral, was one of the provincial mints brought under tighter crown supervision during his reign rather than farmed out to local governors.
The "type E" classification within this series reflects die progression work by album researchers distinguishing calligraphic variants across provincial issues.
