eAuction #32, Lot 100. Estimate: CHF 300.00
Umayyads. al-Walid I b. ‘Abd al-Malik (86-96 AH = 705-714 AD). AR Dirham 96 AH (29 mm, 2.81 g), Arminiya. Walker p. 110.

In the last years of his reign, al Walid secured the Caucasian region against invasions from Khorazan. The Armenian mint probably was set up to finance these campaigns.
