TIMURID: Ulugh Beg I, 1447-1449, AR tanka (4.49g), Dezful, AH851, A-2413.1, with ruler's title mughith al-din, unrecorded mint for this ruler, very clear mint & date, VF, RRR. An historically important coin, as Ulugh Beg only ruled only in Central Asia, most of Khorasan, and briefly also Mazandaran. Dezful is in Khuzestan, which was held by Sultan Muhammad (AH850-855) and is known for an undated issue of Sultan Muhammad at Dezful. It seems that the local ruler at Dezful may have rebelled against Sultan Muhammad and recognized Ulugh Beg briefly in AH851.
