al-Mustadi, ‘Abbasid Caliph AH 555-566/AD 1160-1170

SICA-4, 1208 var (date); A 267, Choice Very Fine

Madinat al-Salam (Baghdad) mint, naming only the caliph al-Mustadi. While a number of contemporary dynasties name al-Mustadi on their coins, purely ‘Abbasid dinars naming only al-Mustadi are very rare, known only from the mints of Madinat al-Salam and al-Hilla.
