AGLABID AMIRS
Ibrâhîm II, 261-289 AH (874-902 AD). Dinar 273 or 276 AH, no mint (Qayrawân? or an imitative mint). Cf. al-'Ush 119. 4.14 g. GOLD. Very rare. Almost extremely fine
very crude style, but generally readable with a few orthographic problems, e.g. in the first line of the creed, thus probably a contemporary imitation made by a die engraver without knowledge of Arabic (Southern Italy? Amalfi?) but with the capacity to reproduce the number of dots to form the writing precisely.
