Beschrijving keerzijde Central field bears a four-line Kufic Arabic inscription reading 'الله أحد / الله الصمد / لم يلد ولم / يولد ولم يكن له كفوا أحد' (Quranic verse, Sura al-Ikhlas, 112:1-4), enclosed within a single inner circle. The marginal legend in Kufic script carries the mint and date formula: 'بسم الله ضرب هذا الدرهم بـ[mint] سنة [year]'. The reverse follows the standard Umayyad epigraphic dirham format established under Abd al-Malik, here continuing in use during the Abbasid revolutionary coinage. The flan shows characteristic hammer-struck irregularity along the edges.

Aanvullende informatie

Abu Muslim's rebellion against Umayyad rule began in Khurasan in 747, and the coins struck under his partisans during this period are among the most historically charged of the entire Islamic series. Anonymous issue was deliberate — the absence of a caliph's name reflected the interregnum reality: the Umayyad dynasty was collapsing, and the Abbasid heir had not yet been formally proclaimed. These dirhams circulated in a region that was simultaneously a war zone and the administrative heart of the revolution.

Abu Muslim was executed by the Abbasid caliph al-Mansur in 755, just years after the revolution he led delivered them to power.
