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.
WATTASID: Anonymous, 13th/15th century, AV broad dinar (34.5mm) (3.07g), NM, ND, A-J548, 34.5mm, inscribed with the Tifinagh IUVZ at the bottom of the obverse, within a background of "squiggly" pseudo-Arabic, probably the same on the reverse, but unclear due to double striking; unique and the first known coin in the Tifinagh script, VF-XF, RRRR. The ancient Tifinagh script has been revived in parts of northern Morocco and Algeria, now found on road signs also in Arabic and either French or English.
