| Obverse description | Bust of Yazdigerd III facing right in Sasanian style, wearing a distinctive mural crown with wings and a korymbos (hair bundle) enclosed in a crescent atop the headgear. The royal effigy is rendered in the late Sasanian artistic tradition, with fine detailing on the facial features and regalia. Flanking the bust are two small crescents with pellets in the fields at left and right. The portrait is encircled by a beaded border, with a further ring of dots forming the inner boundary of the marginal zone. |
