Aversbeschreibung Hammered copper flan of irregular round form bearing a boldly struck device of a lion passant in profile to the right, rendered in a stylized manner characteristic of Safavid copper coinage. The animal is depicted with a compact, muscular body, raised forepaw, and a large round eye rendered in relief. Wings or flame-like projections emanate from the creature's back and haunches, a common artistic convention on Safavid falus issues. The field surrounding the lion device is plain and slightly granular due to the hammered production method. The overall strike is off-center, consistent with hand-struck copper coinage of the period.

Reversbeschreibung Hammered reverse field bearing a multi-line Arabic legend in bold, flowing Naskh script arranged in three or four registers across the flan. The inscription contains the mint name Kashan (کاشان) and the regnal or religious formula associated with the Safavid ruler Tahmasp II, along with the AH date 1136. The lettering is deeply incuse into the die and shows characteristic spreading of the copper flan at the edges due to the hammering process. Portions of the legend are partially off-flan as is typical of this denomination. The field is otherwise plain with no decorative border or inner circle.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Tahmasp II's reign began in chaos. Following the Afghan Ghilzai invasion that effectively ended his father Shah Sultan Husayn's rule in 1722, Tahmasp spent his early years as a fugitive shah, minting coins from whatever cities he could temporarily hold. Kashan, one of the few urban centers that resisted Afghan occupation longer than most, became a viable issuing point. A copper falus from this moment is less a coin of state than evidence of a government fighting to prove it still existed.
