Description
Caliphate. AH 404. Sulayman (2nd reign). Al Andalus. Dinar. (V. 801) (Prieto 33). Obv.: @Ån. Rev.: @?cv! ®? / @{8z. This coin, although engraved in the name of Sulayman, was probably not minted directly under his authority but by one of the unknown figures whose name appears on the IA. As such, they should be considered, as Prieto does, more Taifa coins than Caliphate coins. We only know of one other dinar and two dirhems, the four correspond to different dies with floral ornaments of very different styles.. Extremely rare. 3,78 g. MBC.

Almoravids. AH 493. Yusuf ibn Tashfin. Qurtuba (Córdoba). Dinar. Unprecedented. Neither Vives nor Hazard record a Cordoban dinar of this year, in both catalogs there is a hiatus between AH 492 and 496. But an even more extraordinary detail of this piece is its date: "fi Shawal sanata..." (in [the month of] Shawal of the year...). Curiously, the very rare known cases that cite the mint month are also found in Cordoba and within this three-year period with no "normal" examples in the catalogs. Extremely rare. 4,11 g. EBC.*This item cannot be exported (it has been declared BIC).
