Umayyad Dirham (Minted in al-Mubaraka, 116 AH) – Reign of Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik
<p>The name Al-Mubaraka carries a clear religious meaning. It appears in the Umayyad coin record beside larger Iraqi cities such as Wasit, which suggests a relatively small administrative site within a wider network of regional mints.</p><p>Struck in 116 AH, this dirham is the third piece from this mint in our record, whose first appearance we documented six years earlier, in Hisham's reign.</p>
