| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field presents multiple horizontal registers of Arabic Kufic inscription within a double beaded circle, naming the local ruler Muqatil and acknowledging the Abbasid caliph as Amir al-Mu'minin. The central legend reads 'al-Amir / Muqatil / Amir al-Mu'minin', with the outer marginal band carrying the Quranic verse from Sura 9:33 affirming the supremacy of Islam. The overall layout follows the standard Taifa dirham format derived from earlier Umayyad and Abbasid coinage traditions, with irregular flan edges typical of hammered production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Muqatil ibn Hud governed Tortosa as a dependency of the Hudid rulers of Zaragoza, never quite an independent taifa in the fullest sense — his coinage reflects that ambiguity, acknowledging Hudid overlordship while asserting enough local authority to strike in his own name. The political arrangements in the fragmented post-Caliphate Iberian northeast during this period were genuinely fluid, with loyalties and tribute relationships shifting faster than mint production cycles.
Album 380 is sparsely represented in major collections, a function of Tortosa's modest size and the short window of Muqatil's tenure.
