Seljuks of Rum? Kaykhusraw I ? Æ Fals ? 23.24 mm 2.24 g

[pogh poor]

I acquired an interesting Horse and Rider Islamic Ae coin.  While I know very little about these post Byzantine coins.  I am very interested in them.  It measures 23.24 mm and weighs 2.24 g .  Could it be a Fals of Kaykhusraw I?  Any help in identifying  this coin would be appreciated.  Pogh_poor
