| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field filled with multiple horizontal lines of Arabic legend in raised relief, citing the Abbasid Caliph al-Mustanjid Billah (r. 1160–1170) with his honorific titles: 'Al-Imam / al-Mustanjid Billah / Amir al-Mu'minin' (Commander of the Faithful). The inscription acknowledges Abbasid suzerainty, a customary practice on Danishmendid coinage of this period. The lettering is rendered in a bold, angular Kufic-influenced script characteristic of Anatolian Islamic copper issues of the 12th century. The flan is irregularly shaped with slightly uneven edges typical of hand-struck provincial issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Danishmendids occupied an awkward political position throughout the mid-twelfth century — nominally independent Turkic rulers in central Anatolia, perpetually squeezed between the Seljuk Sultanate of Rum to their south and Crusader pressure from the west. 'Imad al-Din Dhu'l-Nun was the last significant ruler of the Kayseri branch, and his coinage reflects a dynasty already losing ground. The Danishmendid confederation fragmented decisively after his reign, absorbed piecemeal into the Seljuk sultanate by the 1170s.
Album 1244A is sparsely documented, and surviving examples in any condition are uncommon.
