Obverse description Diademed bust of King Kamnaskires VI facing left, with a prominent long beard and a wide fringe of hair visible below the diadem. The portrait is rendered in a schematic, late-Hellenistic provincial style characteristic of Elymaean coinage. Behind the royal effigy, a star within a crescent appears above an anchor, serving as dynastic symbols in the field. The flan is irregular and the relief is somewhat flat, consistent with the degenerative hammered technique of this series.
