Obverse description Facing draped bust in Sasanian style, wearing a stepped crown with tiara surmounted by a globe, the hair rendered in wavy locks fanning outward; to the upper left, a senmurv protome facing right is visible in the field. A prominent counterstamp appears over the senmurv area, consisting of a lion head facing right set within an incuse punch. Inscriptional Pahlavi legends run along the margins within multiple beaded and plain concentric border rings, closely imitating the coinage of Sasanian ruler Khusro II.
