| Reverse description | Central Zoroastrian fire altar depicted in frontal view, with flames rising from the stepped altar top, flanked by two standing attendants facing the altar in postures of worship, their robes rendered with fine linear drapery. A wheel rosette appears in the upper left field, a distinctive emblem associated with Nezak Hun coinage. The composition closely follows Sasanian reverse conventions while incorporating regional iconographic elements. The entire design is contained within a beaded border on the irregularly shaped flan. |
