UMAYYAD: AE fals (1.64g), al-Mansura, ND, A-A204, kalima divided between obverse & reverse, citing on the reverse the governor Mansur, who is perhaps Mansur b. Jumhur al-Kalbi, governor of Sind circa AH130-134, porous surfaces, especially on the obverse, Very Good, RRR. This piece confirms that the governor was indeed Mansur. The full reverse marginal text is "bism Allah duriba hadha'l-fils bi'l-mansura mimma amara bihi mansur". Another example of this type, with the obverse fully clear, but the governor's name partly off flan, was sold in our Auction 31, Lot 285.

Estimate: 120-160 USD
