| Beschrijving voorzijde | Sogdian legend in cursive Sogdian script occupying the central field, reading 'prn' (Parn), rendered in boldly raised strokes characteristic of late Sogdian copper coinage. The inscription is the principal design element, with no border or additional decorative motifs visible. The flan is irregular and shows the typical rough surface associated with hammered bronze issues of this region and period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Southern Sogdiana in the seventh and eighth centuries was a fractured monetary zone — Sasanian influence gave way to Arab conquest after 651, yet local elites continued issuing autonomous copper coinage well into the Abbasid period, often retaining pre-Islamic symbols as civic or dynastic markers. The triskeles tamgha belongs to this category of persistently local identity, a dynastic or clan sign used across Central Asian coinage traditions to assert ownership of an issue rather than a political program.
Attribution remains unresolved. Zeno #347488 is a placeholder acknowledgment that the piece fits a recognizable type without a confirmed mint or ruler.
