Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic Kufic inscription arranged in three or four horizontal lines within a plain inner circle. The legend contains the Islamic profession of faith (Shahada) and related religious formulae typical of Andalusian taifa dirhams. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script runs within the outer border, partially worn, framed by a beaded or rope-pattern rim. The overall style is characteristic of the hammered silver coinage of the taifa period in al-Andalus.

Aanvullende informatie

Ya'la Saif al-Mila ruled the taifa of Tortosa as a client of the Dhul-Nunid kings of Toledo, a subordinate arrangement that shaped the coinage of his brief tenure. Tortosa's position at the mouth of the Ebro made it commercially significant, but politically it was perpetually contested — absorbed by the Almoravids in the early twelfth century after decades of shifting overlordships.

Vives 1291 is among the scarcer taifa dirhams in the catalogue, reflecting the limited output of a minor mint operating under fractured Andalusi authority after the collapse of the Umayyad caliphate in 1031.
