Reverse description A stepped fire altar, depicted frontally with a rectangular firebox supported by a tiered pedestal of two receding plinths, rendered in bold schematic relief typical of Indo-Sasanian coinage. The altar occupies the central field, flanked to the right by a vertical Brahmi legend reading the royal epithet attributed to Ranaditya. A further symbol or attendant figure appears faintly in the left field near the coin's rim. The design reflects the Zoroastrian-influenced iconography common to the post-Kushano-Sasanian coinage of the Sindh region.
