背面描述	A Sasanian-style fire altar occupies the central field, depicted in a highly stylized and schematic form with a stepped base and altar table, closely following late Kushano-Sasanian iconographic conventions. Brahmi legend surrounds the altar in the field to the left and right, reading 'Ranaditya Satya', identifying the issuing ruler. The execution is characteristic of a local imitative workshop, with the legend rendered in a somewhat cursive and abbreviated manner.

附加信息	The Rai Dynasty rulers of Sindh produced these imitative staters in conscious reference to the Kidarite and Kushano-Sasanian monetary tradition, but the progressive debasement of the gold signals fiscal strain rather than stylistic choice. By the mid-sixth century, Sindh was absorbing pressure from the expanding Hephthalite confederacy to the northwest, and the coinage reflects a polity managing its bullion reserves carefully. The original Ranaditya Satya type it copies had already been several steps removed from its own Gupta-influenced prototype.
