Islamic Coins, Arab Sasanian, Bishr bin Marwan, Governor of Kufa (c. 73-75h), drachm, AKWLA 73h, obv. bust of Sasanian ruler to right (Khusraw II), date, in front of face) thalath/wa saba’in, margin, starting at 1:00: bism Allah, at 3:00 la ilah illa Allah, at 6:00 wahda Muhammad, at 9:00: rasul Allah; rev: fire altar flanked by two attendants, mint name AKWLA downwards on right, a monogram which could be read as BBM ( = Bishr bin Marwan) downwards on left, wt. 3.34gms (unpublished), pierced, good fine, of the highest rarity In the year 73 h, while the Caliph ‘Abd al-Malik bin Marwan was introducing his early Islamic dirham coinage in Damascus, he sent his brother Bishr off to Iraq, initially to govern the centre of Umayyad administration in Kufa and then in Basra. It is clear that he was given exceptional powers to introduce the new Islamic coinage where he had direct authority. This coin adds another piece to the very small corpus of coinage which can be attributed with certainty to this innovative governor. The place AKWLA was recorded by the Encyclopædia of Islam as being a gravelly wasteland where the governor established his headquarters somewhat to the north of the new town of a-Kufa where the bulk of the population lived. The use of what appears to be a monogram in the reverse field is an exceptional feature of this coin. Perhaps Bishr was showing suitable modesty on his first coinage. On his later issues he inscribed his full name in Pahlawi.
Lot 213
Islamic Coins, Abbasid, temp al-Ma‘mun, dinar, al-Mashriq 202h, obv. field 4th line: al-Mashriq, rev. field: lillah/-/Dhu’l-Riyasatayn, wt. 4.16gms. (Lowick - ; A. - ; variety unrecorded by Bernardi), extremely fine, extremely rare This is a newly identified dinar bearing the title of al-Fadl bin Sahl, Dhu’l-Riyasatayn ("Holder of the Two Jurisdictions"). Now there appears to be three types of al-Fadl's dinars which bear geographical designations in their obverse fields. Al-Maghrib (the West) for coinage struck in Egypt, al-‘Iraq probably for that from the capital, Madinat al-Salam and al-Mashriq (the East) for that of an unknown mint in Khurasan, possibly Marw where the Caliph al-Ma’mun lived. This beautiful and previously unknown coin may have been seen as an act by al-Fadl which overstepped his powers and prompted his death shortly after it was struck.
