Umayyads

To carry out their conquests, spread Islam, promote their culture, and ensure the economic power of their empire, the Umayyad caliphs needed a decisive tool: coinage. Umayyad dinars and dirhams are therefore privileged witnesses to the formation and consolidation of the first great Islamic caliphate, revealing the emergence of a new political and religious identity.
