Yemen, Zaydí Imáms, an-Násir-li-dín Alláh Ahmad bin Yahyá (AH301-322 or 325/AD913-934 or 937): Imitative/posthumous coinage, AR Sudaysi (1/6 Dirham). Believed struck from al-Nasir’s death in AD937 until atleast to the end of the century, a phenomenon that could explain why there are no known sudaysis naming the Rassid amirs between al-Nasir (d. AH325) and al-Mansur (AH389-393).
