Hi, obtained this coin which was unsurprisingly labelled just as 'Central Asian dirham'. On the reverse, I believe the date AH 924 can be observed, although I can't pin it to any particular ruler or dynasty. (Design looks like Aw qoyunlu or Shirvanshahs). Any help would be appreciated.

Looks like a Timurid silver tanka, Shahrukh (827-850 AH), Samarqand mint

I believe the date (about 11 o-clock on second photo) is 82(retrograde 9?)
