ISLAMIC COINS, PRE-MONGOL IRAN, Samanid, Ahmad b. Sahl, Silver Dirham, Balkh 302h, ahmad below obverse legend, rev letter s below legend, 3.34g (SNAT -; A B1453). Edge slightly chipped, very fine and very rare. It is possible that the Ahmad referred to on this coin and the following coin is one of the Banijurids, Ahmad b. Muhammad or Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Yahya. However, it is much more likely, especially given the letter s on the reverse, that these are indeed coins of the rebel Ahmad b. Sahl. See SNAT XIVc:107 for a Silver Dirham of this type and date minted at Andaraba.

Crude style, last number of date uncertain, some weakness, otherwise very fine, very rare. The Samanids briefly recaptured Rayy from the Buwayhids in 339h; it was lost again the following year.
