The Ottoman Turkish occuation of Tabriz lasted from 1725-1729 during the Ottoman-Persian War of 1722-1727. Peace came in October 1727 with the Treaty of Hamadan. This confirmed Ottoman sovereignty over all the western and northwestern parts of Iran and, in return for Ashraf's abandonment of his territorial claims, gave him official recognition as Shah of Persia with rights of minting coins and sending annual pilgrimage caravans to Mecca.

Estimate: 100-125 USD
