An early 10th-century dirham found near Horncastle, Lincolnshire; probably minted at Balkh, Afghanistan, and subsequently gilded & used as jewellery.pic.twitter.com/B7WWyYOt2z
This is such a fascinating find, Caitlin! Pretty amazing to imagine how it might have journeyed from Afghanistan to Lincoln. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
