| Obverse description | Diademed and draped bust of Kamnaskires V facing left, distinguished by a long beard and a torque at the neck, rendered in the late Hellenistic style characteristic of Elymaean coinage. To the right of the royal effigy, a star appears above an anchor symbol, dynastic emblems associated with the Kamnaskirid line. The portrait is boldly struck with expressive facial features typical of the regional die-cutting tradition. The field is otherwise unadorned, focusing attention on the royal image and its accompanying symbols. |
