Comments
Drawing from Tye to show additional details.
The mint name is usualy read as Khwash or Khwast, and sometimes Khust or Khost. While the actual mint is unknow, they are usualy attributed to either Khust in North-Eastern Afghanistan or Khwast near Ghazna. But die linking has found these unlikely. See here for more information.
This coin has been given the preliminary listing of A 1729K in the upcoming fourth edition of Album.
