Ilkhanate coinage

Timeline

1. 1295–1304Tabriz · East Azerbaijan ProvinceGhazan Khan acceded in 1295 and converted to Islam. Previously Ilkhanate silver coins mostly titled the Great Khan; after Ghazan reformed the finances, coin faces bore the khan's name and the Islamic creed. The paper money issued under Gaykhatu imitating the Yuan dynasty had already failed and is not the same matter as this silver coin reform.
2. 1304–1310Sultaniyya · Zanjan ProvinceÖljaitü Khan continued minting silver coins at his new capital Sultaniyya and in Tabriz and elsewhere; the coin designs blended Mongol emblems with Islamic calligraphy and circulated widely in the 1300s along trade routes in Persia, Anatolia, and the Caucasus.
3. 1310–1335Persia · IranPolitical fragmentation in the Ilkhanate during the 1220s–1230s led some mints to reduce silver content and over-mint; after the khanate's collapse in 1335, successor states minted their own currency and Ilkhanate silver coins gradually left circulation.
