| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a multi-line Kufic Arabic inscription in horizontal registers within a plain inner circle, naming the Abbasid caliph al-Qadir Billah and the Marwanid ruler Mumahhid al-Dawla Sa'id. The uppermost register carries the basmala and the mint and date formula, identifying the place of issue as Mayyafariqin and the year 400 AH (1009 CE) written out in full Arabic words. A marginal legend encircles the central inscription within a beaded border. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-struck provincial Islamic silver dirhams of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Marwanids were a Kurdish dynasty controlling the Diyar Bakr region of upper Mesopotamia, nominally subordinate to the Abbasid caliphate while operating with considerable practical autonomy. Mumahhid al-Dawla Sa'id ruled Mayyafariqin — the ancient city now known as Silvan in southeastern Turkey — during a period when the dynasty navigated carefully between Buyid pressure from the south and Byzantine encroachment from the west. Coinage from this mint in this period is genuinely scarce; Mayyafariqin was not a major silver-producing center, and Marwanid dirhams appear infrequently in hoards relative to contemporaneous Buyid or Hamdanid issues.
