Ilkhanids. Arghun. AH 683-690 / AD 1284-1291. AV Dinar (22.2mm, 3.07 g, 6h). Abu Ishaq (+ Kazirun?) mint. Date not visible. Mint-name Abu - Ishaq to left and right of obverse field / Mint-name apparently beginning bi-Ka... in reverse margin. Cf. Diler 159 (with salla - ‘alayhu instead of mint-name to right and left of obverse field. Marginal legends partly off flan. Near VF. Rare.

From the collection of the late Dr. M.F.W. Al-Katib.

While Diler mentions the existence of a dirham dated AH 685 which bears the two mint-names Abu Ishaq and Kazirun (p. 50, 1139-1595), no such coin appears to be listed in his main catalogue of Arghun’s coinage
