MBC+.*This item cannot be exported (it has been declared BIC).Daniel Eustache, on "Hesperis-Tamuda" no. 19 (1980), published the first information on this early date, at that time the oldest known of the Umayyad Emirs of al-Andalus, the example he commented on came from the excavations carried out in 1951 in the ruins of Volubilis, in northern Morocco. Our firm auctioned a similar dirham, in silver-plated copper, in December 1996, the one we present today is, probably, the third known example, of excellent metal and in a magnificent state.
