Drachm - Buran

Obverse description	Effigy of Queen Buran facing right, depicted with a distinctive crown featuring two lateral wings and a korymbos set upon a crescent; a ribbon adorns the left shoulder while a crescent with ribbon embellishes the right. A star and a star-in-crescent motif flank the crown on either side, with additional star-in-crescent devices arranged in the outer margin.
