| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a dynastic tamgha rendered in the form of a runic Ash character, composed of intersecting diagonal lines with a curved base element, executed in bold relief. The tamgha is enclosed within a partial circular border, around which runs a crude Sogdian legend in cursive script. The overall design is characteristic of the coinage of the Principality of Fiknan, with the tamgha serving as the primary dynastic symbol of authority. |
