| Beschrijving voorzijde | Frontal bust of the ruler Toramana II depicted in the Alchon Hunnic style, wearing an elaborate winged or fan-shaped crown with radiating elements, and adorned with beaded necklace and royal regalia. The figure is shown draped, with the bust presented in a stylized, somewhat frontal pose characteristic of late Kushano-Sasanian and Alchon coinage. To the right of the bust, a small animal or attendant figure is partially visible in the field. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, and Brahmi script legends appear in the field, reading approximately as a royal titulature attributable to Toramana II. The overall style reflects the provincial hammered coinage traditions of the Kapishi/Bagram region. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is heavily worn and covered with a thick green patina of copper corrosion, rendering the design largely illegible. Faint traces of what may be a fire altar or abstract device can be discerned in the central field, consistent with the reverse type commonly associated with Alchon Hunnic copper drachms of this period. No clear legend or script is visible due to the advanced state of wear and encrustation. The irregular flan edge is typical of the hammered coinage produced at the Bagram mint during the mid-sixth century. |
