| Obverse description | Central square perforation surrounded by a Sogdian inscription reading 'bgy x`g`n' (Divine Khagan), disposed around the hole within the flat field. The legend is rendered in the Sogdian script characteristic of the Transoxiana region during the early 8th century. The coin's fabric is irregular and slightly uneven, typical of hammered cash-type issues from the Chach or Ferghana region. No additional decorative elements or border ornaments are present in the field. |
