| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diminutive bust of Ardashir II (Ardakhshir II) facing left, depicted with a short beard and wearing a diadem secured by three trailing ties. The ruler is adorned with a torque composed of three segments and surmounted by a mural crown, conveying regal and dynastic authority. No symbol appears in the field behind the portrait. The style is characteristic of the Persis kingdom's local engraving tradition, rendered in low relief with schematic facial features typical of the late Frataraka period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The king is depicted standing to the left in full figure, dressed in traditional Persis royal attire, holding a long scepter in one hand while performing a sacrificial rite before a fire altar positioned to his left. Aramaic script legends appear in the field, arranged around the central image in the customary manner of Persis coinage. The scene reflects the Zoroastrian religious iconography prevalent on Persis hemidrachms, emphasizing the ruler's priestly role as intermediary between the divine and earthly realms. The reverse design is rendered in the schematic hammered style consistent with other issues of Ardashir II. |
