Aanvullende informatie

Mohammad Ali Shah came to power in January 1907 and almost immediately set about dismantling the Constitutional Revolution his father Mozaffar ad-Din Shah had been pressured into accepting the previous year. By June 1908 he had ordered Cossack Brigade artillery to shell the Majles building in Tehran — the so-called "Minor Tyranny" — suspending the constitution entirely. Coins bearing his name were struck across this entire political crisis, making the 1907–08 issues an inadvertent record of one of the most turbulent transitions in Qajar history.

His reign lasted only until July 1909, when constitutionalist forces deposed him. Short-lived rulers rarely produce extensive series, and the Tabriz mint output for this type reflects that compressed window.
