Umayyad Post-Reform and Contemporaneous Silver Coinages. A die corpus, part two, AH 100–132

Viacheslav S. Kuleshov 512 pages · Hardcover

The second part of the comprehensive die corpus of Umayyad post-reform and anti-Umayyad silver coinages — an essential reference work in Islamic numismatics.

This volume documents silver dirhams of the Umayyad Caliphate and anti-Umayyad issues in silver from AH 100 to AH 132 (718/719–749/750 AD), based on large-scale die-link analysis. The reconstruction of die chains and die relationships refines chronological sequences and contributes to a more precise understanding of silver production patterns within the late Umayyad and contemporaneous monetary systems.

The volume includes:

• A complete die corpus arranged by date
• Identification and mapping of die links and die chains
• Analysis of epigraphic formulas and their variations
• High-quality illustrations supporting die comparison
• An apparatus facilitating cross-reference and citation

Designed for numismatists, historians of early Islam, museum curators, and advanced collectors. This corpus establishes a foundational framework for chronological, quantitative, and comparative research in Umayyad numismatics.
