XVII. NOTES ON SOME INEDITED COINS OF THE DYNASTY OF THE KHALIFAHS OF BANI UMEYA. IN the very comprehensive work of M. Tiesenhausen, printed in St. Petersburgh in 1873, on the Coins of the Eastern Khalifahs, the author recapitulated all the coins of those dynasties that had then been published. His list comprises specimen dînârs of every year from A.H. 76 to A.H. 132 inclusive, excepting the years 82, 85, 87, 102, 105, 107, 125, 129 and 132. Mr. Stanley L. Poole has lately contributed notices of dînârs bearing dates 82, 102, and 105, from the rich collection of Colonel C. S. Guthrie. Recent additions to my collection now enable me to fill in the remaining dînârs of this dynasty. Indeed, my collection contains a dînâr of every year of the series with the exception of 76, 110, and 127. In order to prove that the Khalifahs of the race of Bani Umeya struck dînârs in every year from 76 to 132 inclusive, I will lay before your readers the dates of those hitherto unpublished, and thus complete the entire list. N 107. Diacritical points under the of Ny. N 125. No points whatever. and under the A 129. No points whatever. N 152. No points whatever. The dînârs of the last few years of this dynasty show a tendency to that peculiar style of character most strongly developed at a later period under the Aghlabite dynasty: I mean that style in which the letters are formed of dots or knobs and of lines joining them. The dînâr of the year 132 shows this peculiarity more than those of the immediately preceding years. Again, taking M. Tiesenhausen's work, supplemented by Colonel C. S. Guthrie's collection, as my authority for the edited coins of this dynasty, I find that I can place before your readers nine hitherto unpublished dirhams. بهقباذ الاسفل A 90. Bihkubaz al Asfal. This town is the last of three mentioned by the author of Marasid al Ittila'a, viz. "three towns on the Euphrates near Medinet es Salâm, distinguished by the epithets 'Al A'ala,' 'Al Awsaț', and ‘Al Asfal.'" .Destaod دستوا 99 A AR 96. Darabjard; thus spelt in the Marasid, but without the on the coins. AR 80. Al Husn, or perhaps, if other diacritical points be introduced, Al Khushn, a place not yet identified. Ittila'a says that Al Ahwâz was formerly called j, and was changed by the Persians into the softer pronunciation. They also called it Kuzistan. is the plural of, which means a district." The Ahwaz consists of seven districts between Başrah and Fars, all of which are comprised in the plural Al Ahwáz. LONDON, July 1, 1874. E. T. ROGERS. |
