| Reverse description | Sasanian-style fire altar depicted at centre, flanked by two standing attendants facing inward, each holding a staff or lance, in the manner of Zoroastrian fire-worship scenes derived from late Sasanian coinage. The altar shows a flaming finial rising from a stepped or columnar base. A crescent and additional dynastic symbols appear in the right field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, with the composition reflecting the strong Sasanian religious and iconographic influence on Hephthalite coinage of the period. |
