Byzantine Empire Æ 3 Unciae Commercial Weight. Circa 5th-7th centuries AD. Two nimbate imperial figures standing facing in military attire, each holding vertical spear and resting on shield; traces of ?? below / Blank except for some surface striations. Cf.

Umayyads of Spain, Caliphate of Cordova, Sulayman al-Musta'in (1st reign AH 400/AD 1009-10) AV Mule Dinar. Al-Andalus, "AH 381", struck by obverse die of Hisham II and reverse die of Sulayman. Kalima in three lines across field, ornamented with three circles above field; "in the name of God was struck this dinar in al-Andalus in the year one and eighty and three hundred" around / "The Imam Sulayman, Commander of the faithfuls, al-Musta'in billah" in three lines across field; Qur'an IX:33 around. Album -; Miles -; Vives -. 4.09g, 21mm, 10h. Very Fine. Heavily cleaned. Apparently unrecorded. This coin, of which no bibliographical reference could be found, could have been struck by coupling an old obverse die of Hisham II dated AH 381 (Miles type 289k; Miles only cited AR dirhams with that kind of ornament) and a reverse die of Sulayman, hypothetically dated AH 400, without mention of any name below field (Miles type-342f), so during his first reign only, therefore during the beginning of the collapse of caliphate. The epigraphic style does not seem to determine that it is a contemporary falsification even if the wear of both dies in an almost equal manner could indicate that it is not the product of the "official" mint. We know other examples of "imitations" of silver coinage, above all of Hisham II (see Antonio Vives, p.392) but none of Sulayman and particularly for gold issues.
Crete, Praisos(?) Æ14. Circa 300-270 BC. Facing head of Medusa / Bee; E(?) above. Unpublished in the standard references, cf. Naumann 56, 127, CNG e387, 112, CNG e148, 145 (rose in rev. field). 1.94g, 14mm, 1h. Good Fine. Extremely Rare; the fourth recorded example. The seemingly first recorded example of this type was sold by Classical Numismatic Group in 2006 and exhibits a rose symbol in the reverse field. The coin was attributed to Praisos on the basis that the reverse type and symbol is shared by an issue of silver hemidrachms minted there (see SNG Copenhagen 542). The rose symbol appears to be absent on the two subsequent examples of the Medusa / Bee type offered at auction since (see references) and the example offered here.

(obv. legend). 3.96g, 23mm, 6h. Good Very Fine. A superb reverse with the majority of the silver plating still intact.
