Ordering of table

edit

I was just wondering if it was worth perhaps ordering the table from the most valuable coin to the least. That was what I was expecting to see in the table, so I was a bit confused until I realised how it was ordered. VBasak (talk) 01:39, 18 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

I had the same thought, so I took the liberty of reordering the table. KetchupSalt (talk) 08:22, 3 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

2 dirham coin

edit

One of the sources claim that there's also a 2 dirham coin[1]. Should we add it? I also see that the actual coins look rather different from the designs shown in this article. KetchupSalt (talk) 08:38, 3 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Fineness

edit

The fineness of the gold coins seems to be either 21 or 22 karat[1][2]. Does this mean the 1 dinar coin is 4.25g fine or 3.90g fine? I would suspect the former. KetchupSalt (talk) 09:30, 3 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
