| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized Sasanian-derived royal bust facing right in the central field, depicting a crowned figure with characteristic winged crown and side ornaments in the late Sasanian tradition. The bust is rendered in low relief with simplified linear detailing typical of Arab-Sasanian provincial coinage. Flanking the bust are marginal Arabic legends in Kufic script replacing the earlier Middle Persian inscriptions of the Sasanian prototype. Crescents and pellets appear in the outer margin, continuing the established Sasanian decorative convention. The overall design reflects the transitional Arab-Sasanian aesthetic of the early Abbasid period in the eastern province of Sistan. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central fire altar with two attendant figures flanking, rendered in the characteristic simplified Arab-Sasanian style derived from late Sasanian prototypes. The altar, depicted frontally with stepped base, occupies the centre of the field, while the flanking figures face inward in profile. Surrounding the central design is a series of concentric ring borders with marginal Arabic Kufic legends incorporating Islamic religious formulae, notably the Shahada. Crescents appear in the outer margin at cardinal points, echoing the Sasanian decorative tradition. The overall composition faithfully preserves the Zoroastrian fire altar imagery of earlier Sasanian coinage while integrating Islamic epigraphic elements. |
