Sumario:[EN] This article is structured in two parts. In the first part, the reading made by F. Codera (and followed by later scholars) of a dinar minted in Ceuta in 543H. is corrected. This correction proves that the dinar is an anti-Almohad coin. In the second part, following the pioneering study by S. Fontenla, the issue of whether Ibn Tumart minted coins is analyzed. My answer to this question —after discussing the meaning of the «mahdism» of the founder of the Almohad movement— is negative. A related issue is that of the licit character of minting coins, with Ibn Hazm answering in the negative. I discuss to what extent the peculiar form of minting coins under the Almohads could have been influenced by the monetary theories of Ibn Hazm, and also to what extent they influenced both the Almohad caliph al-Mansur and the Ayyubid sultan al-Malik al-Kamil Muhammad.
