| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bust of King Shapur II facing right, portrayed in a decorative royal effigy adorned with earrings and a distinctive mural crown fitted with earmuffs. The crown is surmounted by a globe or korymbos, the characteristic Sasanian hair-bundle tied in a spherical arrangement. The portrait is executed in the high-relief hammered style typical of early Sasanian silver coinage, with bold, expressive facial features and elaborate regal regalia reflecting the king's divine authority. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A fire altar (atasdan) rendered as a slender column with an elaborately detailed capitellum and a stepped or plated base. A tongue of flame rises from within the capitellum, symbolizing the sacred Zoroastrian fire. The capitellum is supported by stands in the form of lion paws resting upon censers, with the stands further decorated with bow motifs. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded or pointed border, consistent with the formal Sasanian reverse type associated with the dynastic fire-altar imagery. |
