Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse die presents multiple registers of Kufic Arabic legends filling the entire central field, enclosed within a double linear circle bordered by a beaded outer ring. The inscriptions name the ruling Almoravid amir Ishaq ibn Ali and include standard pious formulae and titles associated with late Almoravid regal coinage. The script is boldly struck in angular Kufic, with individual letter forms clearly articulated despite the small flan size and characteristic surface irregularities of hammered production. A date notation, corresponding to AH 541, appears in the lower register. The beaded border encircling the legends is a hallmark of Almoravid silver fractional coinage of this terminal period.

Aanvullende informatie

Ishaq ibn Ali ruled Marrakesh for less than a year — the last Almoravid amir, holding a collapsing dynasty together while Almohad forces under Abd al-Mumin closed in from every direction. By 1147 the city had fallen and Ishaq was dead, reportedly executed after capture. Coins struck in his name are consequently among the rarest of all Almoravid issues, products of a mint operating under siege conditions with no future.
