<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dltsrq, post: 24589731, member: 75482&quot;]Note that the standing figure on this coin has a cross on his crown and a cross in each hand. The distinguishing feature of the op is that the explicitly Christian figure of the Byzantine emperor on the obverse has finally been replaced with a figure in Arab dress and the name of the reigning caliph &#039;Abd al-Malik (<i>&#039;abd Allah &#039;Abd al-Malik amir al-mu&#039;minin</i> / &quot;servant of Allah, &#039;Abd al-Malik, commander of the faithful&quot;).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
