Ek bilgiler

Historical Context: This 1/2 Mithqal gold coin, dated 976 AH (1568 CE), was issued under Shah Tahmasp I, the second and longest-reigning Safavid ruler of Iran. His pivotal reign (1524-1576) consolidated the Safavid state, establishing Twelver Shi'ism. Minted in Mashhad, a significant holy city, this coin highlights Safavid administrative reach and gold coinage's prestige. These issues served for high-value transactions, royal gifts, and religious endowments, symbolizing the Shah's authority and economic stability during a period of imperial consolidation.
