"The mint and date are not visible, but it is definitely the type of Qrim al-Mahrusa dated AH 720. I have seen literally hundreds of this type and have never found one with both mint and date and rarely find one with mint or even a partial date. It seems to have been a frozen type, as there are scores of different dies of varying crudeness, and many are countermarked from the 760s and later. This one has very legible script and is probably from around the early period that this type was struck." [seller]
