Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by a multi-line Persian legend in flowing Nasta'liq script, arranged in two or three horizontal registers divided by a ruled line. The inscription invokes a religious or royal formula in the name of Shah Isma'il III of the Safavid dynasty. Pellet ornaments are distributed around the field and along the border, characteristic of late Safavid hammered coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly cupped, with the legend partially struck off the edge on some sides. No figurative imagery is present, in accordance with Islamic numismatic convention.

Aanvullende informatie

Isma'il III was a puppet ruler installed by Karim Khan Zand in 1750 and deposed by him in 1760 — a figurehead whose name on the coinage served Karim Khan's political need to appear as a legitimate defender of Safavid authority rather than a usurper. The Tabrīz mint had long been one of the prestige houses of Iranian coinage, but by this period its output was irregular and administratively subordinate to Zand priorities.

The Type A designation distinguishes this issue from later die variations produced under the same nominal reign.
