Obverse description Bust of the king facing right, wearing an elaborate crowned helmet with a distinctive crest and elongated neck guard, rendered in the Chorasmian artistic tradition. The effigy displays a strong profile with clearly delineated facial features including a prominent nose and chin. The hair or neck cloth falls behind the head in stylized locks. The flan is irregular, and the surrounding field shows traces of a border, partially visible due to the coin's crude hammered fabric.
