<p>[QUOTE="dltsrq, post: 7851903, member: 75482"]By far the most important online resource for Islamic Coins is the <a href="https://www.zeno.ru/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.zeno.ru/" rel="nofollow">zeno.ru</a> database. I consulted it last night to confirm my reading of your coin. The standard printed reference for Islamic coins is Steve Album's <i>Checklist of Islamic Coins</i>, now available as a free pdf download at the author's <a href="https://db.stevealbum.com/php/home.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://db.stevealbum.com/php/home.php" rel="nofollow">website</a>. Since most Islamic coins are purely inscriptional, there is no way to get around the need for a basic understanding of numismatic Arabic. To that end, I recommend <a href="https://archive.org/details/ArabicCoinsAndHowToReadThem" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://archive.org/details/ArabicCoinsAndHowToReadThem" rel="nofollow"><i>Arabic Coins and How to Read Them</i></a> by Richard Plant.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
