| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicting a humped bull (zebu) in profile facing right, rendered in a bold, stylised manner characteristic of Khotanese coinage of the early Common Era. Kharosthi legend encircles the central device in the field, reading clockwise around the bull. The flan is irregular in shape, as typical of hammered issues from this region and period. The overall artistic style reflects the confluence of Indian and Central Asian iconographic traditions prevalent in the Tarim Basin kingdoms. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Reverse bearing a Chinese seal script legend arranged in the field without a central pictorial device, with characters distributed across the flan in the manner typical of early Sino-Khotanese bilingual bronze issues. The inscription reads 六銖錢 (Liu Zhu Qian), denoting a denomination of six zhu, reflecting the adoption of Chinese monetary terminology by the Khotan court. Dot and linear decorative elements are visible surrounding the characters. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show typical die wear consistent with hammered provincial coinage of the period. |
