Beschrijving voorzijde Degraded bust of an unknown Hunnic chieftain facing slightly right in the Sasanian manner, imitating the style of Peroz I; the face is rendered in a bold, somewhat barbarous style with prominent features and a diadem or headdress visible above. A distinctive tamgha (dynastic emblem) appears to the right of the bust in the field, rendered as an abstract symbol characteristic of Hephthalite or related Hunnic issues. The overall style is a provincial imitation of Sasanian royal portraiture, retaining the general compositional layout while exhibiting significant departure from the refined Sasanian prototype.

Beschrijving keerzijde Zoroastrian fire altar depicted at centre, shown in a schematic, barbarized rendering with a stepped base and horizontal bands suggesting the altar structure; two attendants flank the altar on either side, each facing inward in the Sasanian tradition. Crescents are visible flanking the flames atop the altar, a motif derived from Sasanian royal fire altar reverses. The overall composition closely follows the Peroz I drachm reverse type but is executed in a coarser, provincial style consistent with Sind mint imitative coinage of the late 5th to 6th century.
