| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse presents a densely struck Arabic legend distributed across the irregular flan, with script elements arranged in multiple lines within the field. Scattered pellets are visible as decorative or separating devices between words. The inscription, partially obscured by die misalignment and flan irregularity inherent to hammered production, likely contains the mint name Shemakhi (Shamakhi) and the regnal year in the Hijri calendar. The surface shows characteristic granularity and flow lines consistent with hand-hammered silver coinage of the Shirvanshah period. |

Khalil Allah II ruled Shirvan under acute pressure from the expanding Safavid state — a pressure that ended definitively in 1538 when Shah Tahmasp I annexed the khanate outright and eliminated the dynasty. These akces fall within the final decade of Shirvanid independence, struck at Shemakhi, the dynasty's principal city and a significant node on the overland Silk Road routes connecting the Caucasus to Tabriz and beyond. The Shirvanshah had navigated Safavid suzerainty since the 1510s while nominally retaining autonomy.
Shemakhi mint output from this period is irregular, reflecting political instability rather than economic disruption — the city itself remained commercially active.
