Atypical coinage of al-Qasim. |
The following coins and the previous dinar of 414 H are of interest in that
they do not name Yahya as successor of al-Qasim. Actually Yahya rebelled
against his uncle in the year 412H and these coins must hasve been struck
after. The first coin bellow has no name on reverse, while the second simply
has Hasan on and the third names as successor one Muhammad. Al Qasim was
known to have had two sons, one Hasan and the other Muhammad and must be
they who are respectively cited in the previous two coins. There is no
evidence in the chronicles that al-Qasim ever recognized Yahya as his
successor, so it is more than probable that the coins with such a mention
struck in Sabta or al-Andalus were all struck by Yahya who directly
controlled Sabta and Malaga ( this last through his brother Idris ). So the
coins of 408H. and the coins similar to the ones mentioned above are the
only ones that were, probably, struck by al-Qasim himself.
The name Kind or Kund found on the obverse could very well be a Cordoba
official as Wasserstain ( 1993) has suggested, though the appearance of Kund
and ibn Kund on coins of the same year does not support his speculation (pg
175) that they might be father and son.
