I identified only 2 (1 Abd Allah al Ghalib & 1 Abu al Abbas) of 9 coins that seems to be sa'dian sharifs (Morocco)
Here are 7 silver coins still to be identified:
DiSa3: 14 mm
DiSa4: 14 mm
DiSa5: 15 mm
DiSa6: 14 mm
#4 Abu Muhammad ‘Abd Allah al-Ghalib 965-981 / 1557-1574, Fès mint
Some of the coins, like yours, have a dash between Abu and Muhammad on the reverse side.
Cita: "numisquare"#4 Abu Muhammad ‘Abd Allah al-Ghalib 965-981 / 1557-1574, Fès mint
Some of the coins, like yours, have a dash between Abu and Muhammad on the reverse side.
Again this small silver coin, bought in Morocco, a bit strange
Diameter is 14 mm and thiner than the other ones.
On one side you can see a 5-pointed star in the middle; maybe this coin is not from Morocco?
Sorry, the scan is not very good.
#3 is from Ahmad al-Mansur 986-1012 / 1578-1603 (KM uses the name Ahmad II). I do not detect a mint name. Al-Mansur is visible near the top of the second image: المنصور .
Cita: "numisquare"#8 is also from Abu Muhammad 'Abd Allah al-Ghalib 965-981 / 1557-1574. Mint is at the bottom of the second image but I cannot read it.
Cita: "yvevmax"OK, solved for #4 but don't you think that #3 and maybe this new coin (#10) below are also from Abd Allah al Ghalib?
The 2 end lines seem similar, no?
Al-Mansur is very visible. centre of left image
المنصور
Dirham of the Sa’dian ruler Muhammad al-Mutawakkil 891-894 / 1574-1576.

Great thanks numisquare for your time; I think that these two last coins were not so easy to find.
As far I know, according to the mentionned dates: "Ahmad b.Mahammad" is also known as Abu l' Abbas Ahmad, Ahmed el-Mansour. I have other coins where it is mentionned El Mansour.

@numisquare Any possibility of getting that paper? Seems to be impossible to find and it is the only authority on these types of coins.
The author of the Ph.D. dissertation is now writing a catalog on the coins of the Sa'dian Dynasty. It is about 60% finished. It will include 500+ varieties and data from about 2200 examples.
