Context
Stephen Album's Checklist of Islamic coins designates this coin as Abundant ("A"). The Checklist also notes that "Type D abbasis and some fractions show a great variation in calligraphy, legend arrangement and borders. Numerous variants were struck at Qazwin during the period 1130-1134 (particularly in 1131), when Husayn moved his capital temporarily to that city. Many of these variants are artistically exquisite."
