Beschrijving keerzijde Central field bears a multi-line Arabic inscription in angular Kufic script, arranged in horizontal registers within concentric circular borders. The legend names the Abbasid caliph al-Qa'im bi-Amr Allah, followed by the name and titles of the local Kurdish ruler Jastan b. Rabib al-Dawla with his laqab Abu Shuja' Alp Arslan. A Quranic verse (Surah 9:33) occupies the outer marginal legend, encircling the central panel and separated from it by linear ring borders. The flan is irregular and the die is slightly off-center, as is typical of hammered billon issues of this dynasty. The overall composition follows the standard Abbasid dirham format adapted by the Hadhabani Kurdish rulers of Irbil.

Aanvullende informatie

The Hadhabani Kurdish dynasty controlled territory around Lake Urmia in what is now northwestern Iran, operating as a semi-autonomous power amid the collapse of Buyid authority and the westward advance of the Seljuq Turks. Jastan b. Rabib al-Dawla issued coinage during precisely the period when the Seljuqs under Alp Arslan were consolidating control over the region, making the survival of independent Kurdish minting even this brief a minor political curiosity.

Billon issues from minor dynastic powers of this period were often struck on whatever silver-bearing metal was locally available, and die workmanship varies sharply across the type.
