FATIMID: al-Mansur, 946-953, AR fractional dinar (0.76g), uncertain mint, ND/DM, A-696T, citing the Fatimid Imam in the obverse margin, with the first half of the kalima in the center // second half of the kalima in the center, bism Allah duriba hadha'l-dirham followed by 2 or 3 words of what might be the start of the mint name in the inner margin, undeciphered legend in outer margin, VF-XF, RRRR. With the Idrisid floral symbol below the obverse central text, which suggests that this piece was struck by the Fatimids who had defeated the last principal Idrisid ruler and occupied much of the Idrisid territory. This may alternatively have been issued by one of the several tribal branches that had taken over many of the standard Idrisid territories, recognizing the Fatimids for protection.
