| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by multiple horizontal lines of Kufic Arabic script arranged in concentric registers, conveying the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada) and the name of the Abbasid caliph. The legends are boldly struck in relief against a flat field, characteristic of the Abbasid-influenced dirham tradition. The overall design follows the purely epigraphic style standard to Islamic coinage of the period, with no figurative imagery. The coin exhibits the slightly irregular flan typical of hammered silver dirhams of the early 5th century AH. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Uqaylids were an Arab tribal dynasty — nominally Hamdanid clients, then nominally Buyid clients — whose actual authority over the Jazira and upper Tigris region operated well outside whatever suzerainty they formally acknowledged. Muzahir al-Dawla Rafi' b. al-Husayn held Takrit, the fortified city on the Tigris that would later become notorious as Saladin's birthplace, during a period when the Buyid confederation was fracturing badly enough that local strongmen could mint in their own honorifics without serious challenge from Baghdad.
The Album reference E760 designation signals an extreme rarity — catalogued but essentially unquantified in surviving numbers.
