TAIFAS ALMORAVIDES: Anonymous, 1146-1155, AV dinar (3.70g), NM, AH557, A-405, cf. Vives y Escudero #1998/99, with the two phrases al-amr kulluhu lillah / nasr min Allah ("all the power belongs to God" and "victory comes from God") instead of a ruler's name, clear date, EF, RR. This type was probably issued somewhere in southeastern Spain by local contenders opposed to the rising Kings of Murcia and the Almohades expanding from North Africa. The overall calligraphic style resembles some of the dinars minted in the early to mid 540s in and around the Spanish city of Jaén.
