| Aversbeschreibung | Irregular square flan bearing a Greek legend disposed across the field in multiple lines, reading BAΣIΛEΩΣ BAΣIΛEΩN MEΓAΛOY AZIΛICOY (Of the Great King of Kings Azilizes). The surface is heavily patinated with a dark brown-green encrustation typical of copper coinage from the Indo-Scythian period, with the letter forms rendered in relatively shallow relief consistent with small hammered copper denominations. The legend occupies the entirety of the die face without a figural device, reflecting the purely epigraphic obverse convention employed on certain minor bronze issues of Azilizes. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Azilizes ruled the Indo-Scythian Kingdom during a period of fractious succession, likely following Azes I, though the precise dynastic relationship between the two remains contested among scholars. His copper fractions are among the lowest-denomination issues attributable to any Indo-Scythian ruler, and survive in genuinely small numbers — partly because base-metal coinage from this region was rarely preserved with the care given to silver drachms. The Senior reference here is a "cf." attribution, meaning no exact parallel die match has been firmly established for this specific piece.
