Note: This coin is from the Islamic Abbasid Caliphate during the reign of al-Saffah. Al-Saffah was the first Abbasid caliph, and his reign marked the establishment of the Abbasid Caliphate. Coins from this period reflect the early days of Abbasid rule and the transition from the Umayyad to the Abbasid dynasty. Minted in Al-Kufa during the year 133 AH, this dirham carries historical significance as a relic from the formative years of the Abbasid Caliphate.
