Abdullah al-Mahdi Billah founded the Fatimid Caliphate in 909 after a decades-long underground Ismaili missionary network — the dawa — engineered his escape from Sijilmasa and the rapid collapse of Aghlabid power in Ifriqiya. His gold coinage was immediately political: the Fatimids rejected Abbasid monetary conventions deliberately, using their dinars to broadcast a rival Shia imamate claim to anyone who handled the coin in commerce.
The Fatimid mint at al-Mahdiyya, the purpose-built capital on the Tunisian coast, struck the bulk of his gold output. That city was founded in 921, meaning earlier issues in this reign came from captured Aghlabid facilities.
