ابن تمام, according to Vives (nos. 808—814). I agree with Prieto that the first letter looks more like حـ or the like. The ا of حمام is sometimes lacking.

Plate I

Three dirhems in the Hispanic Society collection struck during the revolutionary period by unknown persons did not come to the attention of the writer until after this catalogue was compiled. These are: two fragmentary specimens of al-Andalus, 404 A. H., similar to P. 32a, and one of al-Andalus, 405 A.H., similar to P. 28d. The latter measures 22 mm. and weighs 2.04 grms.

Vives, and following him Prieto and Hazard, read ضياو الدولة in the fourth line of the obverse. This is a barely possible reading, but the form is scarcely likely, and I think سيف is more probable. Vives and Hazard read ضياو in the first line of the reverse; Prieto left the space blank. I believe ضيا can be read. Hazard (pp. 58–59), following a line of reasoning based on the difference of epithets on nos. 154–156 and no. 157, attributes this unusual coin to Saqawt b. al-'Izz b. Saqawt. But there are frequent numismatic instances of Moslem rulers using a variety of epithets; and I do not grasp Hazard's further argument (p. 59) that "no explanation has been offered.....for his appearance as chancellor following his undoubted death." The coin is undated. Hazard failed to observe that the descriptions by Vives and Prieto relate to the identical specimen; and that the HSA piece is this specimen.

Vives attributed these unusual pieces to Mu'izz al-Dawlah of Lérida or Tortosa, ca. 445–450 A.H2. But the name of Yac'lā is not present, and it would seem more likely to me that they belong to Muqātil (?), although actually there is no clear evidence that they are issues of Tortosa at all.

The usual date for Ismā'īl's accession is 427, but there is an inscription relating to the construction of a cistern in the mosque of Toledo, bearing his full titles and dated 423, which would seem to indicate that he was already ruling in Toledo at that date.

There appears to be general agreement that al-Ma'mūn Yahyā died in 467, despite the existence of a dirhem of 468 (see no. 523, below). Prieto y Vives admits that the decade is missing on this unique piece and that one might be inclined therefore to assign it to 458; but, as he rightly points out, the remarkable arrangement of the legends is characteristic of the issues of the years 465–467, and there are no known coins of the 450's at all from Toledo. Al-Ma'mūn died late in the year, according to the historians, and it would appear that the die-engraver did not change the principal legends of the 467 issue early in 468.

While the mint-name on this unique specimen is admittedly obscure and uncertain, there can be no doubt about the date and the name in the reverse area. Even if the mint is not Balansīyah, the puzzle of the identity of al-Imām al-Ma'mūn remains. Also, if the name is that of al-Ma'mūn Yahyā, what of the posthumous date? And why al-Imām"? Let us hope that a better preserved specimen, or related coins, will eventually turn up to help explain this anomaly.
