| Beschrijving voorzijde | Royal equestrian figure depicted in profile to right, the king seated upon a striding horse rendered in a schematic, provincial style characteristic of Chorasmian coinage of the Middle Period. The rider appears in an upright posture, with details of dress and regalia visible in low relief despite heavy surface encrustation. The design occupies the central field with no discernible surrounding legend, consistent with the Wazamar coinage series. The overall style reflects the local artistic tradition of the Chorasmian dynastic bronzes, showing strong influence from Central Asian equestrian iconography. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Choresmia in the late third century occupied an uneasy position between the declining Kushan sphere and the expanding Sasanian reach, and its coinage from this interval remains poorly documented — Vainberg's typology is still the primary framework, and gaps in it are substantial. The Wazamar Middle Period attribution places this piece within a dynastic sequence reconstructed almost entirely from hoards, with virtually no surviving textual record of individual rulers or mint authority.
The Zeno catalogue reference suggests a paralleled specimen, but die studies on this series remain unpublished in Western literature.
