Beschrijving voorzijde King Azes II depicted as a mounted horseman in profile to the right, seated upon a walking horse, wearing military dress with a diadem or helmet. The ruler holds a spear or lance upright in his right hand, conveying royal and martial authority. The field is plain, with the design rendered in the Hellenistic artistic tradition characteristic of Indo-Scythian coinage. A circular border of pellets or dashes frames the central equestrian effigy. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΝ ΜΕΓΑΛΟΥ ΑΖΟΥ ('Of the Great King of Kings, Azes') runs around the periphery.

Beschrijving keerzijde A standing male deity, identified as Zeus or a Hellenized rendering of a local divinity, occupies the central field, facing front with head turned slightly. The figure is depicted in long robes, raising one hand in a gesture of benediction or holding a symbol of divine authority, while the other hand rests at the side or holds a sceptre. A Kharosthi legend encircles the design, translating the obverse Greek royal titulature. The overall style reflects the syncretistic Hellenistic-Indian artistic tradition typical of Indo-Scythian silver coinage of this period.
