Qasimid Imams of Yemen, Al-Mahdi Muhammad (1109-1130AH), NM (struck at San'â), 1114AH. The mass reported (5.03 g) is slightly high for a Dirham (generally 3 to 4 g).

Great id, Overlord! I guess that makes it seldom encountered, but it is still surprising to see how much demand there is for this coin.
