The Munzir ibn al-Muqtadir ibn Hud 476 (1083) Fractional Dirham coin from the Taifa of Dénia (Al-Andalus and Ceuta) is notable for its unique design, which features a combination of Islamic and Christian elements. The coin's obverse side bears an inscription in Arabic that reads "Munzir ibn al-Muqtadir ibn Hud," while the reverse side features a cross, which was a common symbol used by Christian rulers of the time. This blending of religious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Taifa of Dénia, which was a Muslim state that coexisted with Christian kingdoms in the Iberian Peninsula during the 11th century.
