Beschrijving voorzijde Crude, heavily worn effigy of the king standing facing in the field, rendered in a debased imitative style characteristic of post-Kaniska provincial issues. The royal figure appears in frontal posture with schematic body details, reflecting the degenerate workmanship associated with the Bihar imitative series. The design is strongly influenced by the prototype Kaniska I coinage but executed with considerably reduced artistic refinement. Legends, if originally present, are no longer legible on this specimen.

Beschrijving keerzijde A deity standing facing is depicted in a crude, schematically rendered style typical of the Bihar imitative series. To the left of the figure, remnants of a Bactrian inscription or tamga device are partially discernible in the field, though heavily worn and illegible. The deity's form echoes the iconographic tradition of Kushan reverse types, likely representing Oesho or a related divinity, but the execution is markedly debased compared to official royal issues. The overall design reflects the broad artistic degeneration characteristic of late and provincial imitative copper coinage of the Kushan sphere.
