Extremely fine.
The coins of Abu al-Fath Khan are all extremely rare as his reign last only few months during the year AH 1193. This coin, yet unpublished, is the first appearance of a coin minted in Khuy (Khoy) in the name of Abu al-Fath Khan. In his renowed reference guide of the Islamic Mints published in 2009, Omer Diler only lists gold coins struck by Karim Khan for Khoy AH 1193.
