| Obverse description | Bust of a ruler facing right in the Parthian-Sasanian tradition, rendered in a schematic and worn style characteristic of provincial bronze coinage of the Merv oasis. The effigy displays a headdress or diadem, with the facial features and torso executed in low relief. The surrounding field is irregular and the flan shows typical hammered fabric with uneven edges. |
