| Obverse description | Diademed and crowned bust of the Sasanian king Peroz (or a local imitation thereof) facing right, rendered in a debased provincial style characteristic of post-Sasanian Sogdian and Tokharistani coinage. The effigy displays the distinctive winged crown associated with Peroz I. Two countermarks appear in the field: a retrograde tamgha of uncertain attribution, possibly associated with a Turkic ruler, and an applied Bactrian legend countermark, both applied over the original die-struck design. |
