Comment
Struck during the year of the Safavid conquest of Baghdad, the first Baghdad issue of the normal style of 'Abbas IInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it was issued during the reign of Abbas I Safavi, who was the Shah of Iran from 1588 to 1629. He was a member of the Safavid dynasty, which was known for its artistic and cultural achievements, as well as its military conquests. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the cultural and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
