Ashrafi - Sultan Husayn Abu'l-Ghazi - 3rd reign - Herat mint

Sultan Husayn Bayqara's third reign at Herat was less a restoration than a slow unraveling — by 1504 the Timurid grip on Khurasan was visibly loosening under Uzbek pressure from the north. He died in 1506, and within two years the Shaybanids had taken Herat entirely. Gold ashrafi struck in these final years represent one of the last coherent monetary outputs of a dynasty that had made the city a center of Persian literary and artistic culture for half a century. The epithet Abu'l-Ghazi, "Father of Warriors," reads grimly against that backdrop.
