| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain flat field with a central square perforation, surrounded by a raised inner border and a flat outer rim. The reverse is entirely uninscribed and devoid of decorative elements, consistent with early Paikend civic coinage of the late Sogdian period. The surface shows typical casting texture associated with struck or cast bronze cash-type coins of Central Asia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Paikend — a Sogdian merchant city on the Silk Road southwest of Bukhara — minted its own autonomous coinage during the decades bracketing the Arab conquest of Transoxiana. The city fell to the Umayyad forces around 706–709 AD, ending local civic coinage production entirely. This issue almost certainly predates that final assault, struck when Paikend still functioned as an independent commercial hub wealthy enough to require its own fiduciary currency.
Zeimal's classification remains the primary reference for Sogdian civic bronzes; the two-cross type is among the more distinctive of the Paikend series.
