KHWAREZM: Muhammad Amin Khan, 1845-1855, AV ½ tilla (2.25g), Khwarizm, AH1269//1269, A-3082, with full ruler's titles, abu'l-ghazi muhammad amin bahadur khan, unusually bold strike, choice Extremely Fine, R. The numeral "9" on both obverse and reverse is written more like a comma than the more common version of "9", but this style is known from Central Asian sources. I had previously assumed this "9" was just a meaningless symbol and once read the date as AH1260, even though Muhammad Amin Khan did not access the throne until 1261.
