| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears the tamgha (dynastic emblem) of Farankat, a double-looped device characteristic of the Chach region's local rulers, surrounded by a circular Sogdian legend. The inscription runs along the periphery of the flan and identifies both the issuing authority and the ruling title. The design is executed in the standard hammered technique of Sogdian coinage of the early medieval period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Farankat was a minor urban center in Sogdia, the Central Asian region centered on Samarkand and Bukhara, whose local bronze coinage flourished during the period of fragmented authority following the Sasanian collapse and preceding firm Abbasid consolidation. City-specific issues like this one were largely autonomous productions, filling the gap left by disrupted imperial supply chains. The Sh&K reference places it within Smirnova and Kochnev's foundational typology of Sogdian coppers, still the primary scholarly tool for attribution of this material.
