| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central uncut square hole surrounded by a Sogdian inscription in the field. The legend, reading `prykk MLK` (King Afrig), is arranged around the central perforation, executed in the Sogdian script characteristic of early medieval Transoxianian coinage. The coin exhibits the irregular flan typical of cast bronze issues from the Panch principality. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pendjikent — ancient Panjikant on the Zerafshan River — was one of the last Sogdian principalities to fall to the Umayyad advance into Transoxiana. These coins were struck during the governorship of Said ibn Amr al-Harashi, whose campaigns between 719 and 722 systematically reduced Sogdian resistance. The local ruler Dewashtich, who issued coinage from his stronghold at Mount Mugh, was captured and crucified by Arab forces in 722 — the terminal date of this type.
The Samarqand tamgha appearing on this issue reflects the complex tributary relationships among Sogdian city-states even as the region collapsed under external pressure.
