Watch List notes:

ARAB-SASANIAN: Salm. b. Ziyad, ca. 680-685, AR drachm (3.96g), MRWRWT (Marw-Rud), year 8, A-18, finest style, clearly a regular Arab issue and not an Hephthalite imitation, lovely EF, RRRR. Salm was governor in Khorasan AH61-64/65, and returned to Basra, where he remained until his death in AH73. The meaning of the date TWMNAH ( "8 ") is obscure. It could refer to year 8 or some sort of recognition in opposition to his replacement 'Abd Allah b. Khazim, or an abbreviation of AH68 by the same issuer. I have not seen another example of this remarkable type, and this piece is likely unique.
