| Beschrijving keerzijde | Square hammered silver flan with a central Arabic mint and attribution legend in raised relief, disposed across the field in multiple lines in a cursive Maghribi-Andalusi script. The inscription reads 'duriba bi-madinat Gharnata' (Struck in the city of Granada), identifying the mint of issue. The flan exhibits the characteristic irregularity of hand-struck Nasrid quarter-dirhams, with uneven edges and a slightly warped planchet. Surface patination and scattered corrosion spots are consistent with the coin's medieval date and silver composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Nasrid emirate of Granada was the last Muslim polity on the Iberian Peninsula, surviving for over two and a half centuries after the fall of Córdoba and Seville partly through careful diplomacy with Castile — including, at times, paying tribute to the very kingdom that would eventually extinguish it. These fractional silver pieces circulated in a court economy that produced the Alhambra. The square flan is a deliberate formal choice rooted in North African Almohad minting conventions, carried forward as a marker of Andalusian Muslim identity under increasing political pressure.
