| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central Zoroastrian fire altar depicted frontally, with a stepped base and a flame rising from the altar top, flanked on either side by two attendant figures standing in profile and facing the altar, rendered in the standard late Sasanian drachm tradition. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with Pahlavi script legends occupying the left and right fields beside the attendants. Small pellet-and-crescent ornaments are distributed at the cardinal points outside the inner border, and dots appear in groups along the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tabaristan — the mountainous region south of the Caspian Sea — resisted full Arab administrative control long after the surrounding territories had been absorbed, and its coinage reflects that friction directly. The Abbasid governors who struck these fractional silver pieces inherited a minting tradition rooted in late Sasanian practice, retaining the underlying fabric and module of the pre-Islamic issues rather than imposing a clean break. Jarir governed during a period when the province was still negotiating its relationship with Baghdad, and the half-drachm denomination itself was a local convention with no real parallel in mainstream Abbasid silver production.
