IMPORTANT NOTE - The Buyer's Premium is now $20 per lot or 20% of the hammer price, whichever amount is greater. However, we have also reduced opening bids on lower value items to adjust for the new Buyer's Premium structure, so all-in costs are still very close to what they were in the past. This change in fee structure will allow us to continue to offer coins valued at less than $100 in addition to our higher value offerings. Contact us with any questions.
ABBASID: al-Mu'tamid, 870-892, AR dirham brockage (2.83g), Balkh, AH264, A-240, Balkh was essentially inactive AH210-282, which very few confirmed coins in this period; this is a brockage of the obverse, with legible mint & date, bold VF, RRR. The only Balkh coins of the AH260s are dirhams dated AH263, both purely Abbasid (1 known) and Banijurid (2 known), no other dates in the 260s. It is conceivable that the missing reverse also cited the Banijurid Muhammad b. Ahmad.
