CALIPHAL OR LATER PERIOD. "Mihrab" amulet. (Pb. 19.49g/38x26mm). Possibly 10th-12th century. Rectangular lead plaque folded into a closed triptych and topped with triangular crenellations at the upper edge. A so-called "mihrab" amulet, it displays elegant Kufic writing on its visible part. The legends are distributed within a framing band and a central field in the shape of a horseshoe arch containing 10 lines of visible writing. (Type A-VI, SIM amulets). VF+. Very interesting.
