Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a multi-line Arabic inscription in horizontal registers filling the entire field, consistent with Rum Seljuk dirham typology. The legend names the sultan 'Ala al-Din Kayqubad I with his titles, accompanied by the mint name Sivas (Sebasteia) and the hijri date of issue. The Naskh script is rendered in a bold, slightly irregular hand typical of hammered provincial coinage. A plain circular border frames the inscription field. No figurative imagery is present, conforming to the aniconic convention of Anatolian Seljuk silver issues.

Aanvullende informatie

Kayqubād I ruled the Seljuq Sultanate of Rûm at its territorial peak, pushing borders west toward the Aegean and east into Armenia. The Sivas mint was one of his most productive, positioned on the old Silk Road corridor where commercial traffic made silver coinage a practical necessity rather than a ceremonial one. His reign ended just years before the Mongol invasion at Köse Dağ in 1243 effectively reduced his successors to vassals — making issues from this period the last Rûm dirhams struck under genuinely independent authority.
