Watch List notes:

*Ilkhanid, Arghun (683-690h) or Ghazan Mahmud (694-703h), dinar, mint off flan (possibly Tabriz?) 677h or 679h, obv., as Diler 260 (Ghazan Mahmud), rev., as Diler 156 (Arghun), 3.59g, obverse off-centre, very fine and unusual The decade of the date is clearly written saba'in rather than tisa'in, and enough remains of the unit to identify it as either saba' or tis', but the reverse clearly cites Arghun in Arabic as well as in Uyghur. Puzzlingly, the reverse die used here was clearly well-worn when this coin was struck, even though Arghun himself did not become Sultan until 683h – several years after the date on the obverse. The coin may be a mule, possibly struck shortly after the accession of Ghazan Mahmud (whose early dinars still name Arghun), but the date on the obverse is difficult to explain.

Estimate: £150 - 200
