| Beschrijving keerzijde | Schematic representation of a Zoroastrian fire altar occupying the central field, depicted in a highly stylized and degenerate form consistent with late Indo-Sasanian copper issues. The altar's stepped base and flame element are discernible despite significant wear and crude workmanship. Traces of what may be attendant figures or flanking devices appear in the lower field, though heavily corroded. The overall design follows the established Sasanian religious iconographic tradition adapted for local provincial coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "anonymous" attribution here reflects a genuine scholarly impasse — the Indo-Sasanian copper issues of this period cannot be reliably tied to a named ruler, and Herzfeld's groupings (nos. 27–29) organize them by die and type rather than by reign. The kingdom itself occupied a contested frontier zone where Kushano-Sasanian authority was being asserted over the remnants of Kushan administrative structure, and coinage was issued to fill a practical gap rather than to project a specific dynastic identity.
