Bahri Mamluks. al-Nasir Muhammad I. Third reign, AH 709-741 / AD 1310-1341. AV Dinar (23.5mm, 7.50 g, 6h). Uncertain mint. Dated AH 740 (AD 1339/40). al-sultan in top line on reverse, al-malik at start of second line. Balog —; Album 919. Edge filed in places, otherwise Good VF. Rare.

There is no trace of a mint-name visible on the coin; it is possible that it is completely off the flan, but this seems unlikely. The arrangement of the reverse legend is also unusual - on dinars of Muhammad I al-sultan and al-malik are usually on the same line.

Closing Date and Time: 25 October 2024 at 11:05:40 ET.
