Note: During the post-reform era of the Umayyad Caliphate, efforts were made to standardize and improve the quality of coinage. The Syrian style emerged as a distinctive regional variant, reflecting the cultural and artistic influences prevalent in Syria at the time. AE Fals coins were commonly used for everyday transactions within the Umayyad Caliphate. They typically featured Arabic inscriptions denoting the caliph’s name, mint location, and sometimes the date of minting.
