附加信息	The Emirate of Harar's brass coinage was produced during the final years of the emirate's independence, just before Egyptian withdrawal left the city exposed. Abdallah II, the last emir, ruled under mounting pressure from Menelik II's expanding Ethiopian empire. These small-denomination mahallak pieces circulated in a city that would fall to Menelik's forces in January 1887 — making the window of issue extremely narrow. Harar's indigenous coinage is among the rarest of any sub-Saharan Islamic polity.
