Extremely fine condition or maybe better, one of the nicest samples we know until today. Very well centered and minted in a thick flan. We can found the Indicción 9 (A.H. 92: XCII), only in the gold north african series. In Al-Andalus the gold dinar series only start with the A.H. 93 when the islamic Admon. began. In our records we have a similar A.H. 92 indicción 9 (IX) sample minted In Hispania (Al-Andalus), sold by Aureo and Calico auction house in 2017. Extremely rare, specially in this high grade!!
