| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field contains multiple lines of Arabic Kufic script arranged horizontally within a plain inner circle, with a pellet above and below the central inscription. A second concentric circular border separates the inner legend from the outer marginal inscription, which runs along the periphery of the flan in Arabic script. The overall design follows the Fatimid-influenced format typical of Andalusian taifa gold coinage, with the inscriptions serving as the sole decorative and identifying elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mujahid al-Amiri seized Dénia around 1014 after the collapse of the Umayyad Caliphate of Córdoba, carving out one of the more unusual taifa kingdoms — a maritime power that briefly controlled Ibiza, Formentera, and mounted a sustained invasion of Sardinia that lasted from roughly 1015 to 1016 before Pisan and Genoese forces drove his fleet out. These fractional gold pieces were the small-denomination currency of a ruler who was simultaneously a naval commander, a patron of Arabic letters, and a former slave who had risen through the Córdoba palace system to independent sovereignty.
The Sardinian campaign is the detail that separates Dénia from the other taifa courts.
