BI fals

1.93 g, 18 – 20 mm

Bust mint (or Bost, the modern Lashkar Gah, Afghanistan)

Dated 209AH

OBVERSE: Sasanian-style bust right wearing winged crown. In margin, Muhammad rassul Allah mimma amara bihi al-amir Talha ‘ala yidi ‘Abd Allah; before bust, al-Tahiri (“From that ordered by the amir Talha, from the hands of ‘Abd Allah al-Tahiri”)

The Tahirids were a dynasty of Persian origin which governed the ‘Abbasid province of Khorasan from AD 821 to 873, and the city of Baghdad from 820 until 891. The dynsty was founded by Tahir I b. Husayn, a leading general in the service of the ‘Abbasid caliph al-Ma’mun. The Tahirid capital in Khorasan was originally located at Merv, but was later moved to Nishapur. The Tahirids enjoyed a high degree of autonomy in the governance of Khorasan although they remained subject to the ‘Abbasid caliphate and were not independent rulers.
