| Beschrijving keerzijde | Entirely epigraphic reverse following the standard Umayyad reformed dinar type. The central field contains a three-line Arabic inscription within a plain inner circle, with the Shahada and Quranic reference occupying the field. A circular marginal legend in Arabic script encircles the central text within a beaded outer border, completing the characteristic aniconic design introduced under the monetary reforms of Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan and continued under subsequent Umayyad caliphs. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The aniconic gold coinage introduced under Abd al-Malik's monetary reform of 696–697 AD represented a deliberate rupture with Byzantine and Sasanian coin traditions, replacing figural imagery entirely with Quranic inscriptions. Ifriqiya — roughly modern Tunisia — had its own mint producing these dinars as the Umayyads consolidated control over North Africa following the defeat of the Byzantines at Carthage in 698.
The anonymous attribution reflects genuine uncertainty: without mint names or dates on many of these pieces, assignment to Ifriqiya relies on die linkage studies and subtle metallurgical distinctions from eastern Umayyad production.
