Additional information

Shah Shuja ruled the Muzaffarid dynasty at its cultural peak, patronizing figures including Hafez, who spent most of his life at the Shiraz court. The Type G classification reflects the serialized die study of Shuja's extraordinarily prolific coinage — his reign from 1358 to 1384 produced numerous type variations across mints including Shiraz, Isfahan, and Yazd, making systematic attribution a genuinely complex undertaking.

Shiraz remained the dynasty's primary mint and political center throughout his reign. The Muzaffarids would be extinguished entirely by Timur in 1393, less than a decade after Shuja's death.
