Obverse description Diademed and bearded bust of Kapat facing left, wearing a Parthian-style tiara adorned with a pellet-in-crescent device. The portrait is rendered in the local Perside artistic tradition, with the king's features depicted in a stylized manner characteristic of late Persis dynastic coinage. A pellet border encircles the entire design field.

Reverse description Bearded royal bust facing right, set within or before a prominent star-in-crescent motif positioned to the right of the effigy. The crescent and star are emblematic symbols frequently employed on Persis dynastic coinage and carry both royal and astral significance. The design is rendered in a compressed, stylized manner typical of hammered silver coinage from this kingdom and period.
