1 Dirham - Ahmad b. 'Abd Allah Andaraba

Obverse description	Central field occupied by multiple horizontal lines of Arabic Kufic script arranged in stacked registers, characteristic of Abbasid-style dirham design. The inscriptions are enclosed within a circular marginal legend, also in Kufic Arabic, running along the inner border. The coin is struck on an irregular flan typical of hammered silver coinage of the period, with a beaded or denticulated outer rim. The overall style reflects the epigraphic dirham tradition, with no figural imagery, the entire design composed entirely of religious and administrative inscriptions.

Reverse description	Central field displays multiple horizontal registers of Kufic Arabic script, presenting the standard Islamic profession of faith and administrative legends associated with Abbasid-period dirhams. A circular marginal inscription in Kufic script encircles the central text, running along the inner edge of the coin. The flan is irregular and somewhat worn, consistent with hand-hammered silver coinage of ninth-century Central Asia. A beaded or denticulated border frames the entire design. No figural motifs are present, adhering strictly to the aniconic epigraphic tradition of Islamic coinage.
