Reverse description Plain field featuring two tamghas, the dynastic emblems of the Samarqand rulers, positioned on either side of the central square hole. The primary tamgha of Samarqand appears to the right of the hole, while a secondary, additional tamgha is placed to the left. Both symbols are cast in low relief against a flat, unadorned field, consistent with the aniconic reverse types characteristic of Sogdian coinage of the Ikhshidid dynasty during the seventh century.
