Note: During the Early Post-Reform period of the Umayyad Caliphate, there was a standardization of coinage following reforms initiated by Caliph Abd al-Malik. Ba'albak Mint, located in present-day Lebanon, was one of the significant mints of the Umayyad Caliphate. Coins minted here played a vital role in facilitating trade and commerce within the caliphate's territories and beyond.
