I need good photos , welcome to FORVM.

It is of the Tashfin  house , but I want to be sure 100% , so I tell whom of that house.

Most likely this one;  Ali bin (or ibn means son of) Yusuf bin Tashfin.

I still need  better photos , to confirm and who else on this coin.
Asearch is a good source, but for Islamic coin, I want to make sure.

Thanks, I'll try to make better photos, but I think it's the same coin that you indicate.  +++
