*Almoravid, Yusuf b. Tashfin, dinar, Sijilmasa 500h, 4.14g (Hazard 173, note = Brethes 835), twice pierced, almost very fine and very rare Struck in the year that Yusuf b. Tashfin died; dinars of this date are known from Sijilmasa in the name of his successor, ‘Ali b. Yusuf (Hazard 173). Hazard also reports a coin of ‘Ali b. Yusuf dated 499h, and it may be this which led him to question Brethes’ attribution of a dinar dated 500h to ‘Ali’s predecessor.

Lot 782
*Fatimid, al-Hakim, half-dirham, Tabariya, date off flan, 1.15g (legends as Nicol N3), cleaned and with some staining remaining, fair to fine and extremely rare, apparently an unpublished type for the mint According to Nicol, the only date in which al-Hakim struck silver at Tabariya was 388h. The final digit of the date is probably either a ‘3’ or a ‘6’, and the type is also known for coins struck at Filastin in the early 400s.
