| Obverse description | A horse depicted in full gallop to the right, rendered in high relief in a robust, naive style characteristic of Afghan provincial hammered coinage. The animal is shown with all four legs extended, with small pellets and decorative elements scattered in the field beneath the horse. A small symbol or mark appears above the horse's back in the upper field. The overall design is contained within a roughly circular border, consistent with the irregular flan typical of this issue. |
