Abbasid of Yemen: al-Ma'mun (810-833), gold dinar (3.77g), AH 204 (819-820 CE). Citing Abbasid governor of Yemen Muhammad [al-Ifriqi]. Album A1050.1 (RR). Extremely fine. Very rare. Although early Abbasid dinars of Yemen were mintless, it is presumed that they were struck at San'a. Such early dinars resembled Abbasid coinage of Iraq with the exception of citing Yemeni officials and having a lighter weight standard.
