The references for this coin are innacurate & it is way way too old to be of the Afghan states, what may be its correct attribution?

@Vic65 is it timurid

I see referees are unaware how to use the Zeno Category reference

 

The reference should be #6194 ( https://www.zeno.ru/showgallery.php?cat=6194 )

 

The number #224157 is for a single coin on Zeno and not a category: ( https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=224157 )

 

So referees accept anything without checking if the data is correct? So why a teferee is needed? That happened a lot.

 

Anyway, about the coin, the user who uploaded on Zeno wrote “Struck at Herat during the reign of the Timurid founder Timur.”

 

Yes, it's Timurid, l have a couple of types but the mint on mine is Balkh, the whole listing is wrong  inc the reference to the rupee which had not appeared this early

Thank you for the comment on the Zeno Cat. ref.

 

If we follow Album's approach, he has this as civic copper because it is anonymous (no ruler name)

That would make the placement in the catalog correct, though I agree the currency is a problem and we should add an earlier currency.

@tdziemia Las Bela princely state ----- new issuer
