Note: During this era, the Umayyad Caliphate underwent significant reforms in its coinage system, aiming for standardization and improvement in quality. Coins minted during this time often featured Islamic calligraphy and geometric patterns, reflecting the cultural and artistic influences of the Islamic world. The Halab Mint, located in Aleppo, Syria, was one of the principal mints of the Umayyad Caliphate. Coins minted there were circulated widely within the caliphate’s territories and beyond, contributing to the economic prosperity of the region.
