Beschrijving voorzijde	Draped bust of King Mithradates facing left, wearing the characteristic upright bashlyk headdress. The effigy is rendered in a crude, provincial style typical of early Armenian bronze coinage. A legend in Armenian script encircles the bust within the field, though heavily worn and largely illegible on most specimens. The flan is irregularly shaped, consistent with hand-struck production of the period.
Schrift voorzijde	Aramaic

Beschrijving keerzijde	Draped female bust facing right, rendered in a simplified and somewhat schematic style characteristic of provincial bronze coinage of this period. The identity of the figure is uncertain but may represent a goddess or royal female consort. The field is plain and unadorned, with no visible legend or subsidiary devices. The surface shows typical ancient patination and wear consistent with circulation use.
