Pre-reform issues, Arab-Sasanian. In the name of Khusraw II. AR Drachm (32.3mm, 4.03 g, 10h). APN mint (uncertain location). Dated year 35 (uncertain era). Obverse margin: - / bismillah / - / -. Malek, Arab-Sasanian -; SICA 1, -; Album 4. A few scraches in fields. Good VF. Rare. The mint-signature on this coin appears to read APN; this might be a variation of APL (probably Abarshahr), a blundered version of SLCN, or represent a completely different mint-name. Malek records a similar drachm with the mint-signature APL, bearing a date read as YE 32 (Malek, Arab-Sasanian 28), while no Khusraw II drachms from SLCN are known. The coin is of quite coarse style, and may possibly be a contemporary imitation

Pre-reform issues, Arab-Sasanian. Anonymous. AR Drachm (31mm, 4.14 g, 9h). With legend MHMT PGTAMYY DAT, 'Muhammad is the Messenger of God', before bust in place of governor's name. KLMAN-GLM (Garmshir) mint. Dated AH 70 (AD 689/90). Obverse margin: - / bismillah wali / al-amr / -. Malek, Arab-Sasanian p. 151, note 305; SCC 123; Album 34C. Cleaned. Near EF. Extremely rare. Ex CNG Islamic Auction 1 (25 May 2022), lot 23.This remarkable type, on which the governor's name is replaced by a Pahlawi version of the Arabic Muhammad rasul Allah, is only known for drachms issued at GRM-KRMAN in this year. Coins were struck in Garmshir citing 'Abdallah b. al-Zubayr from AH 65-70, and in the name of 'Atiya b. al-Aswad between AH 70 and AH 72, and these anonymous types were apparently issued during a brief interregnum between the two. It appears that the obverse die on this coin was modified during its lifetime, with the second part of the marginal legend changed to read wali al-amr. Only traces of the undertype are visible, but it appears to be consistent with the Pahlawi BPL - GDH legend seen on coins of Ibn al-Zubayr. A similar change is visible on another specimen, struck from different dies (The New York Sale XIV, 10 January 2007, lot 498). This suggests that the first of these anonymous drachms may have been issued by adherents of Ibn al-Zubayr, but as they lacked his name it was felt acceptable for 'Atiya b. al-Aswad to continue using the dies after he had become governor in the region, subject to this small modification of the obverse. These extremely rare drachms, from which the names of all secular rulers have been removed, represent a further development in the transition towards a distinctly Islamic coinage.

Pre-reform issues, Eastern Sistan. Anonymous. Circa AH 80s-130s / AD 700s-750s. AR Drachm (30.7mm, 3.91 g, 5h). SK (Sistan) mint. Dated AH 87 (AD 705/6). Obverse margin: - / bismillah / rabbi / - / Reverse margin: - / 'Abd / - / -. Cf. Malek, Arab-Sasanian 1076 (without 'Abd in reverse margin); cf. CNG Islamic Auction 1 (25 May 2022), lot 52. Near EF. Rare. It has been suggested that 'Abd in the reverse margin refers to 'Abd al-Rabba b. 'Abdallah, sub-governor in Sistan under Qutayba b. Muslim. Qutayba did not place his own name on the drachm coinage, but it is recorded that he appointed 'Abd al-Rabba b. 'Abdallah as his sub-governor in Sistan in AH 87 before dismissing him in favour of Nu'man b. 'Awf during the year AH 88. The name of 'Abd is placed in the reverse margin rather than on the obverse, as befitting his status as a sub-governor. Drachms with the addition of 'Abd are also known dated AH 88 (Malek, Arab-Sasanian 1077)

Umayyad Caliphate, Silver coinage. AR Dirham (26.5mm, 2.76 g, 4h). Ard mint. Dated AH 82 (AD 701/2). Klat 30 (same obverse die as illustration); al-'Ajlan 82/3 (same obverse die as illustration). Attempted piercing at 1h on obverse, graffiti above reverse field. VF. Extremely rare, only two specimens recorded by Klat. 'Ard' is one of the rarest Umayyad mint-names. Initially read as Urdu, meaning 'camp,' Michael Bates subsequently proposed that Ard was 'nothing more than a die-engraver's error for Ardashir Khurra' (Bates, M., 'Mystery Mints of the Umayyads', ONS Occasional Paper 22, 1987). Since Bates wrote, however, another dirham from 'Ard' dated AH 79 has come to light (Klat 29), and it is far less likely that the same error should have been made on two occasions three years apart. Thus 'Ard' is now generally regarded as being an authentic mint-name in its own right, even though its location is not yet established.
