ISLAMIC, Umayyad Caliphate. Uncertain period (post-reform), AH 77-132 / AD 697-750. Fals (Bronze, 17 mm, 1.52 g), citing the Kalima in the inner field of the obverse and reverse, uncertain mint. An interesting overstrike of an Umayyad fals on a Roman coin. Traces of overstriking and with thick deposits, otherwise, good fine.


This coin was overstruck on a follis of Honorius (AD 395-423). One can clearly see the silhouette of his bust and the legend [...]HONORI[...] on the obverse
