| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central square frame filled with multiple lines of Kufic-style Arabic religious legends in high relief, surrounded by a beaded inner border. The square is flanked on all four sides by marginal Arabic inscriptions within the round coin field. The overall layout follows the classic Almohad-derived square-in-circle design inherited by the Hafsid dynasty. The fields display the Shahada and related Islamic declarations in bold, angular script characteristic of North African gold dinars of this period. |

Abu Yahya Zakariya' I ruled the Hafsid sultanate during a period of intense internal fragmentation — his reign was contested almost from the start, with rival claimants repeatedly challenging Tunis from the western provinces. Gold dinar production under the Hafsids followed the Almohad weight standard inherited from the 12th century, and this piece falls squarely within that tradition of Maghrebi gold coinage that dominated trans-Saharan trade networks connecting sub-Saharan gold sources to Mediterranean markets.
Zakariya' I died in 1317, and the succession dispute that followed briefly fractured the dynasty into competing branches centered on Tunis and Béjaïa.
