| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a multi-line Arabic religious and titular legend arranged in horizontal registers within a plain inner circle. The inscription, executed in angular Kufic script, includes the shahada and the name or epithet of the ruler. A dotted inner border separates the central legend field from a surrounding marginal band bearing a continuous circular Arabic legend, also in Kufic script. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, characteristic of hammered Taifa-period silver coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a multi-line Arabic inscription in Kufic script disposed within a circular inner border, partially enclosed by a lunette or crescent-shaped decorative frame that divides the field. The inscription references the Abbasid caliph's name and the local ruler's titulature. A broad marginal legend in Kufic script runs continuously around the outer border, separated from the inner field by a dotted or plain linear border. The surfaces show typical die wear and flan irregularity consistent with hammered fractional silver of al-Andalus in the late 11th century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Taifa of Dénia was unusual among the petty kingdoms of al-Andalus in that its power was briefly maritime rather than purely territorial — the Hudid rulers had earlier controlled the Balearic Islands and even launched a raid on Sardinia in 1015. By 1083, however, that ambition was long spent. Munzir ibn al-Muqtadir ibn Hud ruled a contracting domain under pressure from the Almoravid advance and Christian kingdoms pushing south, which makes the continued production of fractional silver coinage a quiet indicator of functional, if diminished, administrative machinery.
Vives 1329 is among the later attributable issues of the Hudid line before Dénia's absorption.
