The catalogue distinguishes a documented Maltese provenance from the mere presence of a coin in a Maltese collection. This issue is included for its published local evidence; its mint must be read separately from the place where it was found.

Dating and classification

AH is the Islamic lunar year. A date interval can span two Common Era years. No annual sequence or unrecorded mint is inferred.
