Comment
The exact area this coin belongs to is disputed, and some even suggest it is of Xinjiang origin rather than a Sogdian one.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of the Tang Dynasty in China, which was a time of significant cultural and economic exchange between China and other regions, including Sogdiana. The coin's design and style likely reflect the influences of both Chinese and Sogdian cultures.
