Context

From Album's Checklist: 'The first type, pellets around the reverse, was struck 1129-1132, occasionally in 1133. The Imams types was struck 1132-1135, also 1131 at Qazwin. Further overlap may exist, perhaps due to the continued use of functional dies. Type D abbasis and some fractions show a great variation in calligraphy, legend arrangement and borders. Numerous variants were struck at Qazwin during the period 1130-1134 particularly in 1131), when Husayn moved his capital temporarily to that city. Many of these variants are artistically exquisite.'
