Note: The Umayyad Caliphate, known for its extensive territorial expansion and administrative reforms, issued coins as a means of asserting authority and facilitating trade within its vast empire. The Post-Reform period witnessed improvements in the quality and standardization of coinage. Fals coins were a common denomination of copper coinage used for everyday transactions during this era. They typically featured inscriptions denoting the caliph’s name, sometimes the mint location, and occasionally the date of minting. The Baalbek Mint, located in present-day Lebanon, was one of the prominent mints under Umayyad rule. Coins minted here played a significant role in the economic activities of the region during the Umayyad period.
