| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse similarly features a prominent interlaced six-pointed star motif composed of overlapping geometric bands, with Arabic inscriptions in Kufic script distributed throughout the triangular and polygonal compartments of the design. Religious formulae and the ruler's name and titles are incorporated within the geometric framework. The rim is defined by a beaded border, mirroring the obverse treatment. The hammered flan exhibits the characteristic irregular contour typical of medieval Islamic dirhams of Yemeni production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Rassid imams of Yemen represent one of the oldest continuous Zaydi Shia dynasties in Islamic history, tracing their lineage directly to al-Qasim ibn Ibrahim. By the early 13th century, their control over the Yemeni highlands was persistently contested by rival Ayyubid governors pushing north from Aden and Zabid, making coin production under any given imam an assertion of political survival as much as administrative function. Al-Mansur bi-llah 'Abdallah's issues from this period are scarce in any condition — highland Yemen was not a high-volume minting environment.
