Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 11/07/2014 04:57 am It is either an anonymous Dirhem from the Muwahhids or a contemporary imitative issue from Spain. Have a look at #1.15.00.5 in http://coins.alif.fr/Muwahhid/Muwahhid.html The North African part of their realm covered Morocco, Algeria, Tunesia and also parts of modern Mauretania and Lybia.
