| Reverse description | Stylized head of a lion facing right, rendered in a highly schematic and decorative manner consistent with pre-Hellenistic Bactrian artistic conventions. The voluminous mane is depicted by a radiating series of incuse strokes fanning outward across the field, creating a striking sunburst-like effect. The facial features — open mouth with curving jaw, globular eye, and pointed ear — are boldly articulated in high relief. A raised forepaw is visible in the lower field before the lion's head. No legend or inscription is present. |
