This article provides a scientific analysis of numismatic materials discovered in the Lower Amu Darya basin, particularly in the
Khorezm oasis and adjacent regions. The study examines the historical and geographical position of this area during ancient and
early medieval periods, as well as its political structures and economic life through the monetary system. Furthermore, the
interactions of the Khorezm region with neighboring historical areas such as Bactria–Tokharistan, Sogdiana, Chach, and Fergana
are analyzed based on numismatic findings. Through coin materials, important conclusions are drawn regarding local ruling
entities, their traditions of statehood, economic relations, and cultural interactions.
