| Beschrijving voorzijde | Hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Arabic religious legend in bold Nasta'liq script, disposed across the entire field in three registers separated by two curved cartouche lines. The uppermost register carries the Shahada declaration, the central band the name of the Prophet Muhammad as Messenger of God, and the lower field bears the Shi'a formula affirming Ali as the Wali of God. The script is deeply struck with characteristic Afsharid calligraphic flourishes, and the flan edges show the irregular outline typical of hand-struck Iranian coins of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ibrahim Afshar's reign lasted roughly a year before he was deposed and blinded by his own nobles in 1749. He was one of several claimants to scramble for power after Nader Shah's assassination in 1748, and coins issued in his name were struck at a handful of provincial mints — Kerman among them — during a period when central authority had effectively collapsed. Provincial mints operated with considerable independence, and die work from Kerman shows regional idiosyncrasies consistent with that autonomy.
Album's Type Z designation distinguishes specific calligraphic arrangements on the religious formula field, a distinction that matters for attribution given how quickly successive pretenders reused and adapted existing dies.
