| Obverse description | Stylized effigy of a Kushan-style king standing and sacrificing at an altar, oriented to the left, rendered in the formalized late Kushan artistic tradition. The royal figure is depicted with characteristic regalia including crown and associated royal symbols. Brahmi legends and decorative symbols are distributed around the field. The design reflects a blundered and increasingly schematic derivation from earlier Kushan prototype coinage, consistent with Kidarite transitional issues. |
