| Aversbeschreibung | Frontal bust of a ruler depicted in a schematic, heavily stylized manner characteristic of late Alchon Hun coinage. The effigy appears enthroned or standing, with a distinctive headdress or crown visible above the head. The striking is crude and worn, consistent with a small bronze issue struck at an unknown provincial mint. The overall design follows the debased Kushano-Sasanian iconographic tradition, with the figure occupying the central field. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A rider on horseback depicted in profile facing right, rendered in the bold but schematic style typical of Alchon Hun bronze coinage. The horse is shown in full stride, with the mounted figure clearly discernible despite the heavily worn and darkly patinated surfaces. A Brahmi legend, tentatively read as 'pr', appears in the right field. The composition follows the equestrian reverse type associated with Göbl Kushan type 48A-22, reflecting the nomadic rulers' adaptation of Kushano-Sasanian artistic conventions. |

The Alchon Huns occupied the former Kushan and Kidarite territories across Bactria and Gandhara from roughly the mid-fifth century, and their coinage reflects an administration still finding its footing — mint attribution for most early issues remains contested, with Göbl's classification system providing the primary framework by default rather than by any firm archaeological anchor. The specific Göbl Kushan reference here places this piece among the earliest Alchon copper issues, predating the more systematized emissions associated with named rulers like Khingila.
