ALID OF TABARISTAN: al-Hasan b. al-Qasim, 927-929, AV dinar (4.04g), al-Muhammadiya, AH316, A-E1524, some doubling on reverse, very clear mint & date, Extremely Fine, R. It is currently estimated that 20-40 examples of this type, always of al-Muhammadiya 316, were found in the two recent hoards with terminal dates AH323 and 329. Very few were of this quality. This historically interesting dinar formerly sold for more than $4000, and the current price level seems unnecessarily cheap, as the relatively small quantity shall be quickly dispersed.
