Description

Al-Hasa Longa (Tuwaila) Coin

A historic coin known as the Longa (or Tuwaila) of Al-Hasa, traditionally used in the Al-Hasa region in eastern Arabia. This type of coin circulated as a local medium of exchange before the widespread adoption of modern standardized currencies.

The coin is typically elongated or irregular in shape, which is why it is commonly referred to as “Longa” (long-shaped). It was often made of silver or copper, depending on the period and local minting practices.

Al-Hasa Longa coins reflect the regional trade activity and economic independence of Al-Hasa, which was an important commercial and agricultural center in the Gulf. Due to their limited circulation and local use, these coins are considered rare and collectible, especially in good condition.
