Dinar?
A Gold Dinar is a gold coin first issued in 77 AH (696-7 CE) by Caliph Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan. The name “dinar” is derived from denarius, a Roman currency. This modern gold dinar minted locally is a bullion gold coin made from 4.25 grams of 22-carat.
917 Gold? While pure gold is 24 carat, 917 means it is 22 carat. That is 91.7% pure gold and the rest includes metals like copper and silver. Metal in its purest state is very soft and impractical for making jewels. To create jewelry that is practically wearable, gold has to be alloyed with other harder metals in the required proportions to make it malleable and durable.
No Certificate?
The issuance of certificate is discretion of the refineries. Most of world gold coins (Maple Leaf, Australian Kangaroo, Krugerrand, etc) are minted and sold without the certificate. Their value still holds even without the certificate.
