Hello everyone,
I'm seeking
help identifying and valuing this
Islamic gold coin, which was found in
Central Asia and is now
part of my personal
collection.
Coin Details:
Weight: 11.5 grams
Diameter: 28.3 mm
Metal: Gold
Mint (suspected): Baghdad
Estimated period: Abbasid Caliphate, possibly during the reign of Al-Nasir li-Din Allah (r. 1180–1225 CE)
Condition: Very well preserved; inscriptions are legible with magnification
We believe this may be a multiple dinar (possibly triple dinar) due to the unusually high
weight. The script appears typical for late Abbasid issues, possibly ceremonial or high-value trade-related.
Any
help confirming:
The ruler and
mintWhether this is a triple dinar or regional variant
Approximate value range
...would be very appreciated.
Thank you!
