| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of King Madasena in right-facing profile, rendered in a schematized late-antique style derived from Sasanian prototypes. The facial features — including a prominent nose, defined chin, and ear — are boldly modelled in high relief against a plain field. A stylized Brahmi legend or symbol appears behind the head, partially integrated into the design. The flan is irregular and slightly scyphate, consistent with hammered production of the early Maitraka period. |
