| Aversbeschreibung | Obverse depicts a lion passant in profile facing right, rendered in low relief in a bold, archaic style characteristic of Safavid copper coinage. The animal's body occupies the central field of the irregularly shaped rectangular flan. Traces of a legend or decorative border elements appear around the periphery, partially obscured by the rough, worn surface typical of hammered copper falus. The overall design is crude but vigorous, consistent with provincial mint production of the late Safavid period. |

Sulayman I (r. 1666–1694) ruled the Safavid empire during a period of accelerating institutional decay — the court increasingly dominated by harem factions and court eunuchs, while provincial governors operated with near-total autonomy. Copper falus of this reign were struck for local bazaar circulation, effectively outside the prestige monetary system of silver shahi and gold ashrafi coinage. Isfahan, as the imperial capital, maintained the most consistent output, but even here production standards were erratic.
KM# 191.1 is distinguished from related Isfahan types by specific die characteristics. Weight variation across specimens is considerable, reflecting the absence of tight flan preparation controls at the copper level of Safavid minting.
