Watch List notes:

ILKHANID, HULAGU (654-663h). Dinar, Madinat Baghdad 656h. REVERSE: In field: qaan | al-'azam | Munaka qaan | Hulagu | khan. WEIGHT: 6.99g. REFERENCE: Diler 7 (date not listed). CONDITION: Flan bent, some edge splits, very fine overall and extremely rare. This is an example of the first Mongol gold coinage from Baghdad, struck in the year the city was captured and the last Abbasid caliph executed. In the circumstances it is unsurprising that both this coin and the following lot name Mongol rulers only. For an Abbasid dinar struck in Baghdad during this year, see lot 65.
