| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears a three-line Kufic Arabic religious inscription reading the shahada partial formula, arranged within an undecorated inner circle. The legends are struck in bold, angular Kufic script characteristic of early Islamic copper coinage. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-cut copper planchets of the period. A circular border line frames the central legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ismāʿīl ibn Aḥmad was the Samanid governor of Khurasan and Transoxiana who, in 900 AD, defeated and captured the Saffarid ruler ʿAmr ibn al-Layth, delivering him to the Abbasid caliph al-Muʿtaḍid in Baghdad. The gesture secured Samanid legitimacy under Abbasid suzerainty — and coins citing Ismāʿīl as al-Amīr reflect precisely that arrangement: local dynastic authority acknowledged, caliphal sovereignty formally maintained. Anonymous copper fulus from this administrative zone are notoriously difficult to attribute with precision, as provincial mints operated with considerable independence in their copper issues.
