Beschrijving voorzijde Stylized bust of the Napki Malka deity facing right, rendered in a debased Sasanian artistic tradition. The effigy features a prominent globular headdress or crown element above the head, flanked by elaborate wing-like decorative extensions at either side. The face is shown in three-quarter profile with bold, schematic features, and a beaded necklace or collar is visible at the base of the neck. The overall treatment is characteristic of late Hephthalite coinage, with a marked abstraction of the original Sasanian prototypes.

Beschrijving keerzijde A fire altar depicted centrally in the field, with stylized flames rising from the altar top, rendered in a schematic, heavily abstracted manner derived from Sasanian prototypes. Two attendant figures or staffs flank the altar on either side, and a beaded border or chain-like decorative element runs along the left margin of the field. A crescent or secondary symbol appears at the lower right, consistent with Hephthalite coinage conventions. The design is struck on an irregular flan with flat, worn surfaces typical of circulated hammered silver issues of this period.
