The obverse legend seems to be: "la ilah illa / Allah Mohammad / rasul Al / lah?"
Mint Kath on the obverse. Anonymous coin?
The star design reminds of #35474, which sometimes have been attributed to Shah Malik of Jand, he conquered Kath about AH 432 and ruled as Khwarazmshah Shah-malik al-Jendy b Ali.

Yes, it's anonymous coin. I know six falses this type and two coin flans that were found on Sadvar archaeological site (Khwarizm region, Amu-daria r.).

You have uploaded it in the Mamunid category, but it could well be a later issue...

I'm not full sure that is Mamunid coins. An archaeological date is not clear, also.

Anonymous coins of Kath (placed after the Mamunids?)

Not AFTER. Mamunids or Anushteginids time.

Mamunids - AH 385-408
Ghaznavid governors (Altuntash and others) - AH 408-434
Seljuk governors - AH 434 -...
Anushteginids - AH 470-629
This anonymous coin was maybe issued after the Mamunids (the Mamunid coinage was not anonymous), perhaps by Ghaznavid or Seljuk governors ?

It's interesting idea! Why not...

Well, sub-category is ready. Tentatively placed after Mamunids (until better versions).
