ILKHANID: Queen Sati Beg (1338-1339), AE Fals (1.23g), Mardin, AH 738. Sun-face within an octagram. A-D2233.1 for type, otherwise date unpublished. Very fine, still among the better conditions known for this type. Extremely rare.
The date on the Mardin pieces is known for AH 739. The date on this coin clearly begins with "thaman wa thalatheen" (-38).
Seldom appearing in auction, one of the recent examples, in similar condition, from the more common date AH 739 sold in Stephen Album's auction 23 (lot 452) for $240. Therefore, this piece from an unpublished date is well deserving of a higher estimate.
Estimate: 200-400
