| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a multi-line Arabic religious legend arranged in horizontal lines within a double circle, featuring the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada) alongside the name and titles of the issuing ruler. The inscription is executed in angular Kufic script with foliated elements characteristic of eastern Islamic coinage of the early 13th century. A circular marginal legend in cursive Naskh script runs along the inner border, containing additional Quranic or honorific formulae. The flan is irregular and slightly dumpy, typical of hammered gold dinars of the Transoxanian region. No figural imagery is present, consistent with Islamic numismatic convention. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wakhsh was a minor administrative district in Transoxiana, situated along the Wakhsh River in what is now southern Tajikistan. The emirate operated under the loose suzerainty of the Ghurids and then the Khwarazmian Empire during precisely this decade, making attribution of local autonomous coinage from this region genuinely contested among Islamic numismatists. 'Arabshah ibn Abi Bakr is not a figure who appears with any prominence in the chronicle record, which itself is characteristic of the sub-Ghaznavid and sub-Ghurid petty dynasts of the upper Oxus basin.
The Mongol campaigns under Genghis Khan reached Transoxiana beginning in 1219, destroying Samarkand and Bukhara and effectively ending autonomous coinage production across the region within years of this issue's latest possible date.
