11-13mm, around 0.60 grams each. Fishman/Todd "The Silver Damma" #M59 or similar (there are a few varieties of these). His coinage, slightly lighter than that of his predecessor Shibl, confirms he reigned shortly afterward and introduced a modest two percent depreciation.

Billah yathiqu / 'Ali wa bihi / yantasir (œIn God trusts 'Ali and through him is victorious�) // Lillah / Muhammad / rasul / Allah / 'Ali (œIn God, Muhammad is the messenger of God, ˜Ali�). 10mm, 0.57 grams. G/G #AS15; Fishman/Todd (2018) #HS12. Ali was the son of ˜Umar II, as mentioned by Mas™udi, and ˜Umar™s successor. Ali™s reign must have lasted for a long time, as we see much stylistic change in his coins: the early pieces are large and well-made, with small neat lettering engraved in thin lines; while the (presumably) latest coins are smaller and relatively crudely engraved.

"The coins of the Indian Sultanates"#AS6. Sind was the first part of India to come under muslim rule. The earliest Amirs issued small silver coins (1/4 dirhams) - all carrying the name of the Amir, but without any dates, so they are very difficult to date exactly, especially since the Amirs of Sind are virtually unknown from other sources. These coins are generally not rare, but are difficult to find in high quality, like this coin.
