Comments
Type A was struck at many mints throughout Iran, but not in the northeast (Khorasan and adjacent provinces), which employed different designs and monetary weights (#2240 ff). The date in words appears beneath the ruler’s titles within the heptagon.
For the 2 dirhams known dates are 739-740, but only the year 739 is common
