TAIFAS OF THE CALIPHATE, Banu Hud-Lerida. Yusuf al-Muzaffar (438-47?H). Dirham. (Ve. 4.08g/27mm). 459H?. Lérida / لاردة. (Vives 1247; Prieto y Vives 281c; Medina 109; Jiménez 2160). Mint mark and date not visible. VF+. Extremely rare.

After the death of Sulayman ben Hud, king of Zaragoza, the Taifa was divided among his 5 sons, with 'Larida' corresponding to Yusuf / يوسف, who took the title of al-Muzaffar / المظفر, also using, as stated on his coins, the surnames of Sayyid al-Dawla, Tay al-Dawla and Du al-Siyadatain. ''Of his few coins, this would be the last, since his brother Ahmad al-Muqtadir, king of Zaragoza, against whom he was in constant war, took him prisoner, reincorporating the Taifa of Lérida into his kingdom, possibly in this same year 459H, the date of his last known coins. Although some authors, based on other documents, set these events in the last four years of Ahmad's life, between 471-475H.''
