| Reverse description | Central square hole surrounded by a raised square border, with a large single tamgha (tribal emblem) prominently cast in the field to one side of the central perforation. A brief runic or Sogdian inscription, 'ᚱ prn' (meaning 'Coin'), appears in the field adjacent to the tamgha. The design is sparse, with the tamgha serving as the dominant visual element, rendered in bold cast relief. The outer rim is plain and slightly raised, consistent with the casting technique typical of Türgesh coinage. |
