Shagalov, V. D. and A. V. Kuznetsov, Catalogue of Coins of Chach, 3rd-8th Centuries A.D., ??????? ????? ???? III-VIII ??., ?. ?. ???????, ?.?. ????????, Academy of Science of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, 2006, 302 pages with all types photographed throughout, plus tables and additional plates in back, hardcover, text in Russian and English. An expansive well-produced bilingual catalog of the ancient coins of Chach (ancient Tashkent). It divides the coins into groups by Tamga type after Rtveladze’s scheme. Unlike most prior works on this coinage, the authors write out the legends and variants in the original Sogdian script. Translations are included in the text. The photographs are above-average, and there are drawings in plates at the end of the
book. The English translation takes some getting used to but the book is still one of the best available.
