Fatimids. al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah. AH 386-411 / AD 996-1021. AV Dinar (22.1mm, 4.14 g, 7h). Al-Mansuriya mint. Dated AH 393 (AD 1002/3). Cf. Nicol 1135 (dated AH 392); cf Baldwin’s Islamic Coin Auction 20 (8 May 2012), lot 396. Slightly bent. VF. Excessively rare.

Nicol records quarter-dinars from al-Mansuriya dated AH 393, but lists no full dinars with this mint and date. The specimen offered in Baldwin’s Islamic Coin Auction 20 is from different dies and markedly different in style, and the accompanying image is not sufficiently clear to confirm the attribution securely.

The final winners of all CNG Islamic Auction 4 – Session 1 lots will be determined during the live sale that will be held on 19 October 2023.
