Coins in Andalusia during the Almohad era and the Sultanate of Granada (540-897 H/1145-1411 AD)

Abstract

      Money in the country of Andalusia is an important matter of the political, economic, and financial aspects, as it reflects to us the status of these aspects in terms of strength and weakness, prosperity and collapse, and that money has differed in terms of weight, measurement, shape, and inscriptions that are engraved with it from the era of The Almohads and the era of the Sultanate of Granada, and from one era to another, and this difference highlights to us the political and economic sovereignty within the country of Andalusia. The coins of these two eras of gold and silver were characterized by the acceptance and demand for their circulation within the markets of Andalusia until the end of the era of the era of the Sultanate of Granada, which replaced the money with the Spanish Castilian coins that It was considered safer after the fall of Andalusia, to reflect the political and economic control of the Spaniards over Granada, the last stronghold of the Muslims.
