| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bust of a ruler facing right in profile, rendered in a schematic and stylized local artistic tradition characteristic of ancient Choresmian coinage. The head is surmounted by a horned crown or headdress adorned with pellets, a common regal attribute in Central Asian numismatic iconography. The drapery at the shoulder is rendered in bold, simplified lines. No surrounding legend is present; the design occupies the full flan within an irregular hammered field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Chorasmian coinage of the mid-first-century range remains among the least systematically documented in Central Asian numismatics. Vainberg's typology, developed through Soviet-era excavations primarily around ancient Kath and Toprak-kala, is still the foundational reference, though attribution of individual rulers within the Middle Period sequence remains contested — many "rulers" are identified solely by die groupings rather than any textual corroboration.
The Zeno catalog number suggests this piece has passed through collector documentation, but Chorasmian bronzes of this period rarely surface with excavation provenance intact.
