3.93gm 17.6gm NM (Egypt). year 176 AH RRR
Anonymous
for Harun al-Rashid with Musa (Musa ibn Eissa ibn Musa) cited below
reverse who held
the governorship of Egypt on three occasions in the years 171-172 AH 175-176 AH and 179-180 AH. . Bernardi records a single dinar dated AH 176 which bears Musa's name
held in the American Numismatic Society (ANS 1951.174.4) who apparently
described it as a 'contemporary or modern counterfeit'. The present
specimen is unquestionably genuine and is thus the second confirmed
dinar from the year AH 176 which names Musa.
