1 Cash - Anonymous Single tamgha

The Türgesh replaced the Second Turkic Khaganate across Semirechye and the Chu Valley following the Turkic civil conflicts of the early 8th century, and their coinage reflects a transitional monetary culture heavily influenced by Sogdian commercial practice. This type copies the square-holed Chinese cash format but circulated in a region where Tang China, the Abbasid Caliphate, and the steppe confederacies were actively contesting control — the Türgesh themselves halted the Arab advance at the Battle of the Pass in 731.

The tamgha served as dynastic identifier in the absence of a named ruler, which is why attribution to specific khagans within the 716–750 bracket remains unresolved in the literature.
