Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse bears a multi-line royal titulature in flowing Nasta'liq calligraphy, arranged within a rectangular cartouche framed by a plain border. The inscription identifies the ruler as Sultan Abu'l-Muzaffar Mohammad Shah, son of Tahmasp al-Husayni, and includes the Shi'ite declaration of devotion to the Imam Muhammad al-Mahdi. The mint name Nakhchivan and the AH date 986 appear in the lower portion of the field. The entire design is characteristic of Safavid hammered coinage, with densely packed script filling the flan. The irregular planchet and uneven strike are typical of this emission.

Aanvullende informatie

Mohammad Khodābande came to the throne in 1578 almost by accident — nearly blind and considered politically harmless by the Qizilbash emirs who expected to rule through him. The Nakhjawan mint, operating in what is now the Nakhchivan exclave of Azerbaijan, was actively producing during the early Ottoman-Safavid wars of the 1570s–80s, a conflict that would eventually see the region change hands under the 1590 Treaty of Constantinople. Coins from this mint and reign carry a particular historical weight given how contested the southern Caucasus remained throughout Khodābande's tenure.
