| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic inscription arranged in horizontal registers, bearing the religious formula and the name of the ruler. The legends are executed in a cursive Kufic or early Naskh style typical of 11th-century Caucasian Islamic coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, with the inscription filling the available field to the margins. Strike is moderately weak in places, consistent with hammered billon coinage of the Shirvanshah dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Shirvanshah rulers of the eastern Caucasus occupied an awkward position during the mid-eleventh century — nominally subordinate to the Buyid confederation and then increasingly pressured by the expanding Seljuk advance through the region. Salar ibn Yazid's use of the epithet Abu Harib, meaning "father of war," suggests a ruler defining himself through military resistance rather than administrative inheritance.
Billon coinage from this dynasty in this period is poorly documented in Western collections, with Zeno catalog numbers often representing unique or near-unique specimens.
