Description

Paratarajas of Sindh and Baluchistan – King Koziya, Son of Kozana (c. 235-275 CE), Copper Drachm, 1.90 grams, Obv: Diademed bust of King Koziya facing left, wearing a peaked tiara, framed by a dotted border. Rev: Right-turning swastika with the Kharosthi inscription around: Koziyasa Kozanaputra Parataraja. Very Fine, Scarce. Bhimarjuna was succeeded by Koziya, son of Kozana. However, it is unlikely that Koziya directly succeeded his father. His reign, marked by stability and long duration, saw significant developments, but we cannot confirm an explicit direct succession. Koziya’s era likely bridged a crucial period in the Parataraja dynasty.
