Tri-Chalkon- Azes II Indo-Scythian Kingdom

Azes II remains a contested figure — some scholars have argued he never existed at all, with his coins reassigned to Azes I or later Parthian-aligned rulers. The debate hinges largely on die studies and the Azes Era dating system, which itself cannot be anchored to an absolute chronology with certainty. Senior 100 places him as a distinct ruler, but the catalog entry should be read with that scholarly dispute in mind.

Bronze issues of this type circulated across the northwestern subcontinent during a period of fragmented authority following the collapse of Indo-Greek power in Gandhara.
