| Reverse description | The goddess Nana (Nanashao) depicted nimbate and standing facing, her body slightly turned to the right, with spiked hair bound by a diadem. She holds a wand surmounted by a horse protome in her right hand at waist level and a bowl or patera in her left hand, with a hooked sword emerging from behind her figure. The composition reflects strong Sogdian and Iranian religious iconographic traditions syncretized within Kushan coinage. A Bactrian legend in Greek-derived script surrounds the divine figure in the field. |
