| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is uniface, presenting a plain, featureless field with no design, inscription, or decorative element. The surface exhibits the typical rough texture of a hammered silver planchet, with natural flow lines and die-strike marks visible across the flan. This uniface characteristic is consistent with the known fractional silver issues of the Almohad Caliphate. |

The Almohad monetary system was built on a distinctive square-flan coinage philosophy introduced under Abd al-Mumin, who consolidated Almohad rule across North Africa and al-Andalus after 1147. The anonymous character of this denomination — no caliph named, no mint, no date — was a deliberate theological statement: the Almohad doctrine of divine unity (tawhid) discouraged personalizing coinage in ways that might elevate a ruler above his station before God.
At 0.08g, this is the smallest fractional unit in that system, struck for over a century with near-identical dies across multiple mints from Marrakesh to Seville.
