Comment
A few coins of this type have appeared on Zeno (like 1330 and 169199), although it is uncertain who struck these. One example has been found with two tamghas on the reverse, with one tamgha being of Samarqand and the other resembing a tamgha appearing on the Shishpir coins. Even so, the exact identity is still unknown, and most seem to be uniface.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of bronze, which was a common material used for coins in ancient times due to its durability and resistance to corrosion.
