| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in horizontal lines, characteristic of the Samanid dirham prototype, enclosed within a single circular border. The legend, struck in bold relief, contains the Islamic profession of faith (shahada) and the name of the issuing authority Abd al-Rahman b. Mumin. A marginal inscription in Arabic script runs around the periphery within a dotted or linear outer border. The hammered flan is irregular and slightly broader than typical Samanid issues, with two small holes pierced through the coin consistent with secondary use as jewelry or pendants. The overall style closely imitates Samanid epigraphic coinage of the late 10th century. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse follows the standard Samanid epigraphic layout, displaying a multi-line Arabic inscription in the central field divided by horizontal lines, with the Quranic legend and the names of relevant rulers or governors rendered in bold hammered relief. A continuous marginal Arabic legend encircles the central inscription, separated by a plain linear border, and a dotted outer rim frames the entire design. The strike is typical of late 10th-century Volga Bulgarian imitative dirhams, showing characteristic die-axis alignment and somewhat worn letter forms resulting from the use of crude local dies copying Samanid prototypes. Two piercings are visible on the flan, consistent with use as a pendant or decorative mount in a secondary context. |
