Obverse description Full figure of the king standing facing left in the field, depicted in a frontal posture with arms held before the body in a characteristic Indo-Scythian royal stance. The effigy is rendered in low relief typical of late Parataraja copper coinage, showing the ruler wearing traditional dress with visible lower garment folds. The figure occupies the majority of the flan, with no surrounding legend visible on this side. The die work is bold but somewhat crudely executed, consistent with provincial hammered copper issues of the period.
