AV Dinar Hunnic Kings of Sind circa 5th Century

Just won a mintstate AV Dinar from Sind/formerly part of Sassanian/Kushano Empire. The White Huns invaded this region circa 400AD, their rulers then struck AV Dinars which were an imitation of Sassanian regal AV coinage. There were a few in Adams collection, but only VF quality. This is one of finest known. Still got it for better price then Adams coins at CNG 100 auction. Probably have it in 2 weeks.

Its a nice coin, I have to go lay down.

 

Thanks, I really like the Sassanian/Kushan/Gupta/Hunnic/Medieval India stuff. Like the Backtrian too.....cannot afford them. Supposely AV 20 Staters coins were struck some of their rulers....big coin for that time.
