Note: This AR Dirhem was minted in Samarqand, possibly during the year 295. The Samanids, though nominally governors under the Abbasid Caliph Al-Muqtadir Billah, held significant power and influence in Central Asia during this period. Coins minted in Samarqand reflect the region’s importance as a cultural and economic center under Samanid rule.
