| Obverse description | Depiction of an elephant in profile facing right, with an armed rider or figure seated upon its back, rendered in a schematic, stylised manner typical of early medieval Central Asian coinage. The design is contained within a dotted or beaded border. The overall execution is crude yet distinctive, consistent with the hammered fabric of the series. |
