Beschrijving voorzijde Hammered silver flan bearing a multi-line Arabic religious legend densely arranged across the field, characteristic of Sa'adian coinage. The inscription, struck with irregularly spaced punches, fills the entire surface with no border or decorative framing. The lettering is executed in a cursive Arabic script typical of Moroccan mint production of the mid-seventeenth century. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular planchet shape and uneven strike associated with hammered technique. Surface wear and die crudity are consistent with circulation coinage of this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Ahmad IV — known as Al-Abbas — ruled Morocco for less than two years before being deposed in 1655, the same year this dirham was struck. The Sa'adian dynasty was collapsing under fratricidal succession wars, and multiple pretenders were issuing coinage simultaneously from different cities, making clean attribution of individual strikes genuinely difficult for scholars even today.
