A Khwarizmian-script legend runs adjacent to the tamgha, identifying the issuing king. The design is characteristic of the local coinage tradition of ancient Choresmia, with the tamgha serving as the primary dynastic symbol.

Aanvullende informatie

Choresmian coinage of the mid-third century remains among the least systematically studied in Central Asian numismatics, with Vainberg's classification still serving as the primary framework decades after publication. The Wazamar series specifically has resisted clean chronological ordering — the "Middle Period" designation reflects die-study groupings more than any firmly anchored historical date, and the 250–300 range should be treated as an approximation.

Choresmia maintained remarkable political independence during this period, sitting between the Sasanian Empire to the southwest and the fragmenting Kushan territories to the east. Its local bronze issues circulated within a closed regional economy with minimal outside monetary influence.
