| Obverse description | Bust of the ruler facing right within a beaded border, rendered in a debased Sasanian style. The effigy wears an elaborate crown or headdress adorned with ribbons or flames, with heavily stylized hair depicted in thick, ridged strands. The facial features are rendered frontally, with pronounced eyes and a broad nose characteristic of Kidarite portraiture. A Brahmi legend appears in the field, partially legible, surrounding the bust. |
