| Obverse description | Frontal facing bust of the ruler Buddhamitra occupying the entire field, depicted en face with a broad, stylized visage and large almond-shaped eyes. The effigy is surmounted by an elaborate crown adorned with foliate and flame-like cresting, flanked by ribbon-like diadematic streamers falling to each side. A prominent beaded necklace encircles the neck, and the shoulders are framed by flowing drapery rendered in the Kushano-Sasanian artistic tradition. The entire design is contained within a beaded border following the irregular flan. |
