Tetradrachm

The dating of this issue to roughly 295–283 BC places it squarely in the turbulent aftermath of the Diadochi wars, when Seleucid authority over Bactria was still being consolidated following Seleucus I's eastern campaigns. Attribution to an uncertain city rather than a known mint reflects a persistent problem with Bactrian numismatics from this period: civic coinage was produced at multiple centers whose identities remain archaeologically unresolved, and hoards from the region rarely provide enough contextual stratigraphy to settle the question.

The Syros and Taylor references place this among a recognized typological cluster, with Birds#70 suggesting a die-study linkage that narrows the issuing authority without fully identifying it.
