Beschrijving keerzijde Central field displaying a multi-line Kufic Arabic inscription giving the second part of the Islamic profession of faith: 'Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.' A marginal legend encircling the central inscription reads the mint formula: 'Struck at Bayt Jabrin,' identifying the issuing mint in Palestine. The lettering is rendered in angular early Kufic script, consistent in style with other Umayyad provincial fals. The flan is irregular and the strike somewhat off-center, typical of hammered copper issues from minor Umayyad mints. No decorative borders or figurative elements are present.

Aanvullende informatie

Bayt Jabrin was a fortified administrative town in southern Palestine, near ancient Maresha, and its mint operated during the transitional decades following Abd al-Malik's sweeping monetary reform of 696–697 AD — the reform that replaced Byzantine and Sasanian coin types with purely epigraphic Islamic designs. Anonymous copper fulus of this period were struck locally to meet small-denomination demand that the new silver dirham coinage could not practically serve.

Walker number 200 places this piece within a well-documented but still incompletely catalogued provincial series. The Bayt Jabrin mint is among the smaller Palestinian issue points, and attribution often depends on mint name reading alone.
