Beschrijving keerzijde Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic calligraphic inscription in naskh script, enclosed within a single linear border. The legend references the mint city of Balkh and Islamic religious formulae typical of Shaybanid coinage. The inscription is rendered in the bold, intertwining calligraphic style characteristic of Central Asian hammered silver issues of this period. The irregular flan shows the typical fabric of a provincially struck hammered coin.

Aanvullende informatie

The Shaybanid dynasty was in terminal collapse by 1598. 'Abd al-Amin's reign lasted barely a year before he was killed by his own cousin, Din Muhammad, ending the Shaybanid line entirely and opening Central Asia to the Janid dynasty. Balkh, as a major node on the Oxus trade routes, continued striking coin even as political authority disintegrated around it.

Album 2999 covers the final Shaybanid issues, and Balkh mint tankas from this specific reign are among the scarcest in the series.
