Ayyubids Mayyafariqin & Sinjar al-Ashraf Musa AH607-617 (1210-1220 A.D.) Dirham Fine -- #AC94609

Ayyubid Mayyafariqin & Sinjar al-Ashraf Musa AH607-617 (1210-1220 A.D.) Dirham VF -- #AC93910
AE Dirham 30mm. 11.50g. Mayyafariqin mint AH612 (1215/6 A.D.) Prince seated facing, holding globe; legends around.
[Legend citing al-Adil Abu Bakr as overlord within and around trilobe] (illegible, poorly executed overstrike upon earlier hexagram type).
Album 859.1 on 856.2 VF. Brown patina with some coppery high points. Interesting overstrike. Some roughness from overstriking. Soft, unclear reverse with green adhesions. The seated-prince type of al-Ashraf Musa features a reverse legend within a trilobe or ornamented triangle, but was frequently overstruck upon facing-bust type dirhams of the previous ruler, al-Awhad Ayyub, which featured a reverse legend within a hexagram. On this example, the obverse was properly overstruck, but for some reason the trilobe reverse is essentially missing, instead exhibiting a partially flattened hexagram reverse from the original al-Awhad Ayyub dirham. An interesting 'blend' of subsequent types.
