Estimated magnitude 7.4. 40,000-200,000 deaths (perhaps 50,000 is about right). "The city of Tabriz was almost completely destroyed." I will use the city of Tabriz, Iran as the location because of proximity and the extent of damage.

A Moon-Pluto conjunction was on Nadir as it happened (but Venus on IC and Jupiter recently risen).
