Beschrijving keerzijde Irregular square flan with Arabic legends occupying the central field, disposed in multiple horizontal lines in Maghribi script. A continuous border of raised pellets runs along the upper and left margins, serving as the principal decorative element. A vertical rule or linear division is faintly visible within the field, a feature associated with Wattasid fractional silver types. The overall strike is characteristic of the crude hammered technique employed at Moroccan mints during the mid-sixteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

The Wattasid sultanate was in terminal collapse during this window. By 1549, the Saadian dynasty had effectively ended Wattasid rule in Morocco, having taken Fez the previous year — which makes coins struck in this final phase among the last gasps of a dynasty that had itself begun as regents before seizing the sultanate outright in 1472. Whether this piece was struck before or after the fall of Fez is impossible to determine from the flan alone.
