| Reverse description | Plain field bearing the dynastic tamgha of Samarqand positioned to the left of the central square hole, with a secondary auxiliary tamgha situated to the right of the hole. The tamghas serve as heraldic symbols of royal authority and regional identity, characteristic of Sogdian coinage. The reverse is otherwise devoid of inscription or further decorative elements, with the cast bronze flan exhibiting a rough, porous surface typical of the period. |
