摘要

该作品旨在找出十七世纪至十九世纪带有中心铭文 "ʿAli is the friend of God (ʿAli vali Allāh) "的萨法维硬币长期流通的原因。通过研究这一时期的钱币和发现这些钱币的囤积地，以及历史叙事、人种学信息和宗教文本，可以了解这些钱币在什叶派环境中的意义和接受情况。正如格雷沙姆的 "劣币 "定律所预言的那样，对这些钱币的特殊态度说明了对这些钱币的广泛仿制在这一时期占据了伊朗市场的主导地位。

Ugly Yet Popular: the Remarkably Long Life of the Safavid Coins of Hoveyza

The aim of the work is to identify explanations for the lengthy circulation of Safavid coins bearing the central inscription, “ʿAli is the friend of God (ʿAli vali Allāh),” from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. Studying the coins from the period and the hoards in which they were found, alongside historical narratives, ethnographic information, and religious texts, sheds light on their meaning and reception in their Shiʿi environment. The special attitude towards these coins accounts for the widespread imitation of these coins, which came to dominate Iranian markets during this period, as predicted by Gresham’s law of “bad money.”

期刊介绍： Publication of the Association for the Study of Persianate Societies. The journal publishes articles on the culture and civilization of the geographical area where Persian has historically been the dominant language or a major cultural force, encompassing Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan, as well as the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, and parts of the former Ottoman Empire. Its focus on the linguistic, cultural and historical role and influence of Persian culture and Iranian civilization in this area is based on a recognition that knowledge flows from pre-existing facts but is also constructed and thus helps shape the present reality of the Persianate world.
