Umayyad Fals (carried over from Umayyad Dirham)

5 berichten
Here is a couple of shots of the Umayyad Fals. From 12 o'clock to three o'clock on the reverse there is damage. Hopefully the remainder has usefull information in the margins. Thanks, Mike
Your coin appears to be an undated Umayyad fals of Dimashq (Damascus), struck c. AH 90 or so. The mint name in the reverse margin is obscure but based on other elements, I'm confident in the attribution to Dimashq, Walker 838.

W838 is different than the description given in the Numista catalog entry (even though it is listed as one of the references).

The obverse of mpashea's coin, W838, has two concentric circles separated by three equally-spaced annulets (barely visible but evident). The marginal inscription on the reverse of W838 is shorter: bism Allah zarb bi-Dimashq. Also the word Allah in the third line reverse is misspelled as lillah.

Strangely, the photo in the Numista catalog is not of a Dimashq coin at all but one with the clear mint name bi-Tabariya (بطبرية), Walker 893.
