Artuqids of Mardin. Husam al-Din Yuluq Arslan. AH 580-597 / AD 1184-1200. Æ Dirham (29.6mm, 13.22 g, 2h). Without mint-name. Dated AH 589 (AD 1193). Four figures in a ‘lamentation’ scene / S&S 35.2; Album 1829.3. Some accretion. Fine.

While Spengler and Sayles gave the ‘lamentation scene’ an astrological significance, they nevertheless concluded that this celebrated type does indeed refer to the death of Saladin in this year

Closing Date and Time: 5 July 2023 at 12:28:40 ET.
