Caucasian Albania — the ancient polity occupying roughly modern Azerbaijan and southern Dagestan, entirely unrelated to the Balkan nation — produced coinage that remains poorly understood, with attribution still contested among specialists. The Sergeev sequence for these anonymous drachms covers considerable die variation, and individual pieces are difficult to pin to a specific ruler or mint center with confidence. Scholarly consensus has not settled on a definitive issuing authority.
Finds concentrate around the Kura-Araxes river system. The kingdom sat at the intersection of Parthian and Roman spheres of influence throughout this period.
