Spain, La Reconquista, Anonymous Christian, Imitative of Almohad (Muwahhid) Caliphate Dirham, 13th - 14th Century

They were struck in good silver and were accepted in European trade alongside Islamic coins until forbidden by the Pope. In the Islamic world they were rejected as crude counterfeits.ME54446.
