ILKHAN: Ahmad Tekudar, 1282-1284, AV dinar (4.09g), Tabriz, DM, A-2138, standard design and calligraphy, as the previous Tabriz dinars of Abaqa and the later Tabriz dinars of Arghun, Gaykhatu, and Baydu; with the king's name only in Uighur, VF, RRRR, ex Christian Rasmussen Collection. A very few specimens, perhaps 3 or 4 total, were found in the large Ilkhan gold hoard terminating with Baydu and a few pre-reform dinars of his successor Ghazan Mahmud that reached the market about 1994. None is recorded on Zeno or CoinArchives. This type was unknown to Diler, although he did list a unique Tabriz dinar with the name Ahmad in both Uighur and Arabic, dated 68x, that appeared in Spink Auction 31, Lot 310 in 1989, where it was correctly described as the first known gold coin of the Ilkhan Ahmad. No additional specimens are believed to have been found since the 1994 hoard.
