| Obverse description | Bust of the king in right profile, depicting a stylized royal effigy wearing an ornate headdress or cap and an elaborate beaded necklace. The portrait is rendered in the distinctive late Chorasmian artistic tradition, with bold linear features characteristic of provincial Sasanian-influenced coinage. A beaded border encircles the entire obverse field. |
