Watch List notes:

Abbasid, al-Mu'tamid (256-279h), dinar, no mint-name 273h, obv., citing the caliph's brother al-Muwaffaq billah, 3.99g (Bernardi 177 RRR), good fine and very rare. These very rare mintless dinars were struck for a brief period in the early 270s. Thei style of the epigraphy is very distinctive, and similarities have been noted with the contemporary dinars of the Arab Amirs of Crete, which apart from special donative issues are the only other gold coins of this period not to bear a mint-name. (£1000-1500)
