Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Hun influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a traditional Greek motif of a bust of the king, while the reverse side features a Hun-style horse and rider. This blending of cultures reflects the complex history of the Hunnic Empire, which was formed through the union of various tribes and cultures under the rule of the Alchon Huns.
