| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse of the hammered gold dinar displays a central field with four horizontal lines of Kufic Arabic text arranged within a double linear border, featuring the Durood (blessing upon the Prophet) and the name and title of the Ikhshidid ruler Muhammad al-Ikhshid. A dotted inner border separates the central inscriptions from the circular marginal legend, which carries a Quranic verse (Surah al-Tawbah 9:33). The design is enclosed within a beaded outer border, following the standard typology of Abbasid-derived Islamic gold coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Muhammad al-Ikhshid founded the Ikhshidid dynasty after the Abbasid caliph al-Radi appointed him governor of Egypt in 935, a post he then made effectively hereditary — one of several provinces slipping from direct Abbasid control during the caliphate's prolonged administrative fragmentation. His gold dinars maintained the weight standard of the Abbasid minting tradition closely enough to function without friction in existing trade networks, which was precisely the point: fiscal legitimacy borrowed from a weakening center.
The dynasty would hold Egypt until the Fatimid conquest of 969.
