Reverse description A large dynastic tamgha prominently displayed in the centre of the field, rendered in the form of a swastika with curved or hooked terminals, a well-known royal symbol associated with the Chorasmian ruling house of this period. The tamgha is boldly struck in high relief against the plain, unadorned field, occupying the majority of the flan. No surrounding legend is present. The symbol served as a dynastic identifier and is catalogued as a key diagnostic feature of the Vainberg B2 V/1 type.
