Drachma White Huns

Obverse description	Bust of the Hephthalite ruler facing right, depicted in the Sasanian artistic tradition, wearing an elaborate diadem or crown adorned with projecting elements and ribbons. The effigy features a beaded necklace or torque at the neck, with the hair rendered in stylized locks beneath the headdress. Inscriptional Pahlavi legends occupy the field to the left and right of the bust, partially degenerate in execution. The overall style reflects the local imitative coinage derived from late Sasanian prototypes.

Reverse description	Central Zoroastrian fire altar depicted in schematic form, with flames rising from the altar top, set between two standing attendant figures facing the altar, rendered in a flat, linear style characteristic of Hephthalite imitative coinage. A beaded border or partial ring of pellets encircles the inner field to the right. The composition closely follows the standard Sasanian reverse type, though the execution is notably more schematic and degenerate than its Sasanian prototypes. Pahlavi or pseudo-Pahlavi inscriptions may appear in the margins, heavily stylized.
