Watch List notes:

Safavid, Sulayman I (1079-1105h), silver 5-abbasi or 20-shahi, Isfahan 1099h, 36.24g (KM 229; Album 2664), traces of mounting on both sides (as is common on these coins), otherwise good very fine and well struck, rare. Ex John Work Garrett Collection, Part 1, Leu/NFA, 16 May 1984 lot 376 (offered with ticket). Struck only at Isfahan, this variety of Sulayman's presentation coinage represents an improvement both in workmanship and silver fineness over earlier types.
