Al-Walid I was the sixth caliph (reigned 705–715 AD) of the Arab Umayyad Dynasty, who is best known for the mosques constructed during his reign.
Dirhams were the standard silver coinage used in the Islamic world from Spain to central Asia, but they are also found in hoards of the 9th and 10th centuries across northern Europe.
During the Viking Age, Scandinavia received enormous quantities of Islamic coins, dirhams, acquired by Rūs traders in exchange for furs and other commodities along long distance river trading routes stretching across the eastern and southern Baltic coasts and inland waterways.
These dirhams are also found in Viking hoards, such as the Storr Rock Viking hoard (Isle of Skye) which contained 19 dirhams and the York Viking hoard which was discovered in 2007.
