Comment
Krause lists metal as gold and weight as 2.2 which doesn't match the dirham denomination givenInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Abul-Hasan Muhammad ben Ahmad, who was the Sultan of Morocco from 1603 to 1613. He was a member of the Saadi dynasty, which was a powerful and influential dynasty that ruled Morocco from the 16th to the 17th century. The coin is made of silver and features intricate designs and inscriptions that reflect the cultural and artistic traditions of the time. It is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic, social, and political context of the Saadi dynasty and the region during that period.
