UMAYYAD: Yazid III, 743-744, AR dirham (2.90g), Wasit, AH126, A-139, lovely strike, Very Fine to Extremely Fine.
This is the only Umayyad coin that can be securely assigned to Yazid III, as the obverse margin bears only four annulets, whereas those of Walid II bear five and those of Ibrahim bear seven, all dated AH126. The analysis was published by DeShazo & Bates in "The Numismatic Chronicle", series 7, vol. 14 (1974).

This mint name is somehow connecting with the name of the Balikh River in north central Syria, not to the far-away city of Balkh in what is now northern Afghanistan. Walker and many others published it as Balkh. Examples are routinely found in central Syria, never in Iran or Afghanistan.

The mint name can be read as baniyas without the prefix b for bi ("in") or as bi-anbulus, which can be interpreted as "in Nablus", a city in Palestine that had struck Arab-Byzantine coins some 50 years earlier, with the Greek name Neapolis, abbreviated as NEA, or as just the "officina" mark N beneath the M on the reverse. A much later coin, struck by the Isma'ili ruler Bahram al-Da'i and dated AH521 clearly shows the name bi-baniyas and can thus securely be assigned to Baniyas rather than Nablus (SNAT-258), both calligraphically and historically. My personal preference is that this coin is from Nablus, not Baniyas.
