| Reverse description | Highly stylized fire altar depicted frontally at center, flanked by two attendant figures in a schematic rendering derived from Sasanian fire-altar types. The altar shaft and flame are rendered as bold raised lines, while the flanking figures are reduced to abbreviated geometric forms. The lower portion of the field is filled with a row of arc or pellet devices representing the base or plinth of the altar. A Brahmi legend appears in the field, much degraded through repeated die-copying, consistent with Maitraka coinage of the later period. |
