Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents multiple lines of Kufic Arabic inscription arranged in parallel horizontal registers filling the central field, a layout typical of early Abbasid-period copper fals from the eastern provinces. The legends likely include the mint name Sijistan and the regnal or administrative reference to Sulayman b. Abd Allah. The hammered flan is irregular in outline with a dark copper patina and areas of corrosion, characteristic of provincial copper coinage struck during the transitional revolutionary period of AH 138-140.

Aanvullende informatie

Sijistan's copper coinage during the Abbasid Revolution occupies an awkward administrative moment — the province was effectively in flux, its Umayyad governors losing grip as Abbasid forces swept eastward following the decisive victory at the Battle of the Zab in 750. A fals attributed to Sulayman b. Abd Allah in 755–756 suggests either residual Umayyad administrative inertia or local mint officials continuing to strike under a governor whose authority was already a fiction.

Copper from this transitional window is poorly documented and rarely surfaces in excavation contexts with clean attribution.
