| Obverse description | Highly stylized effigy of the king standing in front view, sacrificing at a fire altar to the left; the figure rendered in a schematic, late Kushan-derived artistic idiom with summarily depicted robes and headdress. A Brahmi legend appears beneath the outstretched arm, identifying the ruler. The design retains the broad compositional conventions of Kushan royal coinage while displaying the pronounced stylization characteristic of post-Kushan successor issues. |
