TAGHAYTIMURID

807 – 810 AH

All coins were struck at Astarabad, though on one rare issue, the mint name is given as Aqalim, “the climes” or “the countries”, probably an epithet for the dynastic capital Astarabad or an epithetical name for a nearby military or administrative compound. All silver struck to the 5.7-5.8g tanka standard of Shahrukh’s Astarabad tankas or marginally lighter. All 4 tanka types are now illustrated at Zeno.
