🏛 Design Details

Safavid coins typically feature:
• Islamic calligraphy (no portraits)
• Shah’s name and titles
• Mint name and Islamic (Hijri) date
• Religious inscriptions

These coins were hand-struck, so alignment and centering vary widely.

📊 Grade on Your Slab
• Grading Company: MEGA (Middle East Grading Alliance)
• Grade: F Details
• Fine details visible
• Surface issues noted (likely cleaning, corrosion, or strike weakness)

“Details” grade means the coin has a problem that prevents a straight numeric grade.

💰 Approximate Market Value (2026)
• With details issues: $40 – $100 USD
• Cleaner problem-free examples: $120 – $250+ USD
• Rare mint varieties can go higher

📌 These coins are historically important because they were struck shortly before the fall of the Safavid dynasty in 1722.
