| Additional information |
Savojbolagh — a minor mint northwest of Tehran in the Alborz foothills — operated intermittently under the Qajars, and its output was never systematically documented the way larger provincial mints were. Fat'h Ali Shah's copper falus issues were struck to serve purely local exchange needs, with no central oversight of weight standards, meaning surviving examples frequently deviate from the nominal flan specification. The KM#70 attribution consolidates several regionally distinct types that specialists now treat with considerably more caution.
