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.
ALMOHAD: Anonymous, ca. 1160-1275, AR square dirham (1.53g), Wahrân (Oran), A-497, Hohertz-606x, Zeno-318740 (this piece), VF-XF, RR. The mint on this coin is clearly Wahrân, which is cited by the 13th century lexicographer Ya'qut as a coastal location near Tlemcen, and the city of Oran is still called Wahrân in Arabic, as on Google Maps.
