Umayyad Caliphate. temp. Hisham ibn ‘Abd al-Malik. AH 105-125 / AD 724-743. AR Dirham (26.7mm, 2.90g, 7h). Al-Andalus mint. Dated AH 121 / AD 738/9. Klat 134. AU. Rare.

Ex Morton & Eden (London) Auction 107 (22 October 2020), lot 14.

This specimen, which is particularly well preserved and which was evidently struck from fresh dies, shows traces of a grid with three rows and three columns around the central obverse legend. The engraver appears to have incised this lightly on the surface of the die to help position the legends correctly.
