Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by multiple horizontal lines of Arabic religious legend arranged in five registers, comprising the Shahada and related formulaic inscriptions in bold Kufic script. The central area is enclosed within a dotted inner border and a plain outer border, with a circular marginal legend running along the periphery in Kufic. The coin exhibits an irregular flan typical of hammered production, with several small suspension holes pierced near the rim, indicating secondary use as a pendant. The name of the local ruler Harb b. Sahlan appears in the lower register of the central field.

Aanvullende informatie

Andaraba and Banjhir, located in the Hindu Kush valleys of what is now northeastern Afghanistan, were significant silver-producing regions whose mines supplied raw material to Samanid mints across Khurasan and Transoxiana. Local governors occasionally struck their own issues drawing directly on that supply. Harb b. Sahlan appears in the numismatic record almost exclusively through his coinage — the coins are effectively the historical documentation of his authority.

Album 1438.3 distinguishes this type within a cluster of closely related Hindu Kush regional issues, most separated only by mint name and overseer.
