Comments
"1492 AR dirham
R [Rare]
Weights vary from less than one to more than 7 grams. Actual specimens rarely do justice to the excellent die work, as they are struck on flans far smaller than the dies, often haphazardly shaped. Clearly dated examples are very rare; a few show the mint, always Janza. Lebedev identified 16 subtypes, many with intricate designs."
