Ancient Manuscript Review 115 : Antique Hijazi / Kufic Quran on Vellum - 9th CE

This is a single folio of Quran written in late Hijazi script on vellum. I purchased this vellum from a reputable auction house in USA. COA that comes with this vellum describing it as Arabic Hijazi Quran Vellum c. 8th-9th Century CE.
There was an auction from Sotheby's selling some follios with quite similar scripts which were described as late Hijazi script. The item as in below link :
Sotheyby's Late Hijazi Quran

However Prof Deroche described this script as B-II i.e " Early Abbasid Scripts". In reference to " Islamic Codicology", this script is datable to 9th Century CE.
Regardless various terminologies used by expert to describe this script, one thing for sure this script is a transition from the earliest Arabic script i.e Hijazi script to a more constructed Kufic script.

From Christie's website, similar leaves were sold on Sale 5331, Lot 136. I believe this leaf came from the same Mushaf. See the link :

Ancient Manuscript Review 110 : Antique Kufic Quran on Vellum / Parchment ( 10th Century)

This is a vellum with both sides written Quranic verses in Kufic script. Acquired from an acquaintance in Paris. The vellum originally belonged to a Professor of Islamic Art. I couldn't verify the exact date of this vellum however based on the script (Kufic), I would estimate it around 9th -10th century CE. The leaf was in 3 fragments.
