Beschrijving keerzijde Central field occupied by the dynastic tamgha of Farankat, a distinctive geometric symbol composed of angular and rectangular elements rendered in bold relief, flanked by subsidiary decorative motifs. A Sogdian inscription encircles the central device, running along the periphery of the flan and identifying the coin by its issuing authority. The design is characteristic of Sogdian city-state coinage of the 7th–9th centuries CE.

Aanvullende informatie

Farankat was a minor urban center in the Sogdian cultural sphere of Transoxiana, and its autonomous bronze issues reflect the fragmented political reality of the region during the seventh and eighth centuries — a period when Arab conquest gradually displaced the Iranian-rooted dynasties that had issued their own civic coinage for generations. The Sh&K reference places this among the typology documented by Shchanyabag and Kochnev, whose work remains the principal scholarly framework for these poorly-understood Central Asian bronzes.
