A genuine hammered silver dirham dating to roughly the 14th century. These coins were hand-struck throughout the medieval Islamic world and circulated widely across Arabia, Persia, and surrounding regions. Hammered dirhams from this era are known for their distinctive circular inscriptions and classic medieval calligraphic style.

This example shows heavy circulation wear, with most surface detail worn smooth — very common for hammered silver coins that saw extensive use across major medieval trade routes. Even in worn condition, it remains an authentic piece of medieval silver currency over 600 years old.

A solid entry-level example for collectors of Islamic, medieval, or world hammered coinage. Condition as shown in photos.
