THE WALIDS, Amir of Astarabad, Amir Wali, (A.H. 757-788) (A.D. 1356-1386), silver six dirhems, Astarabad mint, A.H. 778 = A.D. 1376-1377, (A.2343, cf.M.1873-4). Flat in places, otherwise very fine and rare.
The only ruler numismatically of this state was Amir Wali who emerged in Astarabad after the fall of the Ilkhans. his coinage is anonymous and can be easily confused with that of the Sarbadars. The Sarbadarids later lost the Damaghan region to Amir Wali during the 760's and he was later suppressed by Timur in 783.
