1 Dinar - Kidarite Huns

正面描述	Standing royal effigy of the Kidarite ruler rendered in the late Kushano-Sasanian stylistic tradition, depicted frontally with elaborate headdress adorned with pellets and flowing ribbons. The figure wears draped robes with ornamental detail, and holds regalia in the field. Bactrian legend is present in the periphery. The hammered flan produces an irregular surface with characteristic relief typical of late antique Central Asian gold coinage.

附加信息	The Kidarites emerged from the broader Chionite migration pressure on the Kushan empire's northern frontiers, eventually displacing the Kushano-Sasanian rulers of Bactria and Gandhara in the mid-fourth century. Their gold coinage directly imitated late Kushan prototypes — a deliberate legitimizing strategy for a dynasty inserting itself into an established monetary and political tradition. The name "Kidar" itself appears on their coins, the earliest epigraphic evidence we have for the dynasty's own rulers identifying themselves in title. Mitchell's reference places this piece within the foundational phase of Kidarite independent issue, before the dynasty was itself pushed southward by Hephthalite pressure late in the fifth century.
