	~~Coins~~ made in Abbasid mints figure preeminently in these finds. Golden dinars and silver [[dirham]]s of stable weight and value were struck with regularity in [[Baghdad]] and other cities. [[Merchants]]' confidence in them was such that they were used well beyond the empire's borders, especially in Northern Europe where few organized power centers produced their own coins. One [[Anglo-Saxon]] king, [[Offa of Mercia]] (r. 757-796) went even further than using them. He created ~~golden~~ coins that simply copied ~~dinars~~ struck by [[Caliph]] [[al-Mansur]] (r. 754-775), complete with an {{Wiki\|Arabic}} inscription attesting that "there is no God but God alone". One has been found in [[Rome]] and was probably offered by Offa to the [[Papacy\|Pope]]. Quite an ironic twist.		[[Coin]]s made in Abbasid mints figure preeminently in these finds.

	Glasswork was another popular Baghdadi export. Small and light, glass pieces could be carried far away without much effort.

One tiny black glass seal inscribed with Arabic script was even inlaid in the middle of a cross found in the Ballycottin bogs of [[Ireland]].
