Also note that this specimen was reportedly returned after being condemned (from photos in a public online discussion) as a fake by J. Muona & B. Murphy ("The original coin is either tooled or fake. I’d want to see it in hand to confirm which."). See https://cointalk.com/posts/8344857 & https://www.cointalk.com/posts/8343098
Correction: Naville Ars Classica II (12 Jun 1922), Lot 539, Vautier-Collignon.

This coin is not belong to the Danishmendid ruler. It was struck by as-Salih Ismail (AH 569-577), the Zangid ruler, probably in AH 571. You can clearly see the caliph name, al-Mustansir, on the reverse of the coin.

The date has been retooled, to an earlier date. Shame as this is a 1647 Tapia issue, which is much rarer.
No. 2613 is Centaur Sagittarius prancing rev. (vol. I, p. 140, not vol. II, p. 140).
Ex 1979/80 Epidaurus Hoard (Coin Hoards VII, 69; CH VIII, 298).
