As an asset, the money with its developmental stages in the Abbasid period is the main theme of this paper. Under the title of “Coin in the Abbasid Period” we first dealt with the term ‘money’ then its mint and inspection. Later on, the minting of golden (dinar or denarius), silver (dirham) and copper (fels) has been defined and counterfeit patterns have been tackled. Additionally, money exchangers who were the means of exchanging money and who occupied an intermediary position between people and mint have been treated including their functions, duties and inspection. A group of people who are expert on these matters, called jahbaz are also mentioned in our paper. Moreover, ceremonial and commemorative mints as well as coins minted as gifts have been treated as well
