SHIRVAN: Qasim Khan, 1789-1794, AR abbasi (2.61g), Shamakhi, AH1203, A-2946, strong VF to EF.

Abbasis of this date, AH1203, have been traditionally assigned to Asker Khan, who ruled for a few months between Fath 'Ali Khan and Qasim Khan, but since there is no difference in text and arrangement, there would be no way to distinguish issues of Asker from Fath 'Ali or Qasim, assuming that the same weight standard applied to the three reigns during that year.
