Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse field is entirely occupied by a multi-line Arabic inscription in Kufic-influenced Naskh script, arranged horizontally across the flan. The upper lines contain the Shahada — the Islamic declaration of faith — reading 'There is no god but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God.' The lower lines bear the mint and date formula recording the place of striking as Mardin and the AH year 698 (AD 1299). The legend fills the field without a central decorative motif, consistent with standard Artuqid epigraphic reverse types. The surface shows typical patination and die wear associated with heavily circulated copper issues of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Najm al-Din Ghazi II ruled Mardin as a vassal caught between collapsing Mongol Ilkhanate authority and the rising pressure of the Mamluk sultanate to the southwest. His coinage was issued during a period when the Artuqid dynasty's autonomy was increasingly nominal — copper fals production continued largely as a local economic necessity, not as an assertion of independent power. The dynasty would survive only another two decades before Mardin finally fell under direct Mongol and then Timurid domination.
